I combined gnome-pomodoro with my script (Strict Pomodoro)

Strict Pomodoro: Auto site blocker for GNOME Pomodoro

I built this because I often forgot to run my site blocker when starting work – and ended up getting distracted.

This script ties into GNOME Pomodoro via D-Bus:

• Blocks websites during Pomodoro sessions
• Unblocks them during breaks
• Runs as a systemd user service, so it’s automatic every login

Why not use custom actions?
Because ./install.sh sets up everything in one step. I switch devices a lot, and this approach is reliable and portable.
