I think a good approach would be to just not hide the markdown characters. I didn't create this but I'm tempted to try to extend it.


If you have an old dumb-phone without a sim-card you can use it as an alarm instead. For me it turned out to be cheaper and better!


Should uninstall any browsers too :)


I didn't know you could do it that way and I really like it as well. I'd love to implement it in my DelayWebpage firefox extension as well!


It's the first one for me now.


Likewise.


You could try DelayWebpage, it seems to fit you better. It's open source so any feedback is appreciated

Link to the extension which in turn links to the git repo: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/delaywebpage/


You could try DelayWebpage(1) which I made since I couldn't find a good alternative on Firefox. It's pretty basic so if there's any feature missing, feel free to request it, send a PR or fork the repo(2)

I wrote an extension for this since I couldn't find a good one for Firefox. Feature and pull requests welcome

Just what I was looking for! Thanks for this add on. For me youtube.com would still be extremely important. I set the blue window with the text to white and deleted the text, it's too embarrassing to have the big blue text on my screen.


I'll add youtube to the list! Hm, I hadn't thought of that angle, maybe a white background and small text is a better default


Could we customize the splash screen colours and text?


Yes it's in the settings! I could add support for arbitrary CSS as well if you'd like :)
