Cure For Reddit Addiction

If you find that you are reading reddit far too much and need something to help you stop try the following.

  1. Install the Redirector Firefox plugin.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5064

  1. Select Tools -> Redirector and set up a redirection as follows

Example URL: http://www.reddit.com/

Include Pattern: http://www.reddit.com/*

Redirect to: http://some-other-site.com

Wildcard selected

  1. Get back to work :-)

If you really need to get back to Reddit click on the R in your status bar and you’ll turn off your redirection.
