About this extension
You meant to do something else – and here you are on a news home page again.
Kawaii Tab Tamer catches exactly that reflex.

🐱 Gentle, not strict: a kawaii overlay asks whether you really want this, with
a few seconds of deliberate friction. You can always continue – or switch on
the hard lock, which only opens by typing a code word.

📖 Deep links stay free: only the home page is guarded, article links open
normally.

📑 Tab counter across all windows, with a seven-day history, your record and
what you cleared today.

🔔 Reminders that help: Kawaii Tab Tamer nudges you while tabs are still open and suggests
the one you have ignored longest. Quiet hours and snooze included.

🥺 Every new tab costs something: finished the article, spotted three more
links, opened them all in new tabs? Kawaii Tab Tamer shows up right where you clicked,
with a small sad card, and takes back exactly what closing a tab earns.

🎯 Gamification that fits tidying up: XP per article you finish, a daily goal,
levels, a streak and 14 badges. Opening and closing a home page deliberately
does not count.

🌍 German and English: the interface follows your browser language, or you
pick one by hand.

Everything stays local: no servers, no accounts, no analytics.
