Question 1

How do I stop doomscrolling?

Accepted Answer

Doomscrolling happens because feeds are engineered to keep you watching, so quitting by willpower alone rarely holds. UnAlgorithm removes the trigger: it keeps the recommendation feed out of your way on YouTube, Reddit, X and other sites, and replaces it with searches built from a goal you set. You still use the sites, they just stop steering you.

Question 2

Can I use YouTube without the recommended feed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. With the UnAlgorithm extension installed, the YouTube home feed is kept out of your way and you get goal-driven searches instead, so you watch what you came for rather than what the algorithm queues up.

Question 3

What is UnAlgorithm?

Accepted Answer

UnAlgorithm is a free browser extension and web app by MindsNet. You tell it what you are after, and every site you visit works toward that goal: it hides algorithmic feeds and turns your goal into the searches worth making across YouTube, Reddit, X and more.

Question 4

Is UnAlgorithm free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. UnAlgorithm is free to use, on Chrome, Firefox, and as a web app that works without the extension.
