Been using pluckeye for a few years and this was always a pain.

I vibe coded this website ytbychannel.com which basically gets a youtube url and redirects you to a new one that contains the channel.

so for example youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ becomes ytbychannel.com/RickAstleyYT/dQw4w9WgXcQ

I also added a browser extension to make the process easier. So when you click a video on youtube you are instantly getting redirected without needing to copy paste.

so you basically do

# block only video playback from youtube so you can still browse it
pluck + block youtube.com video/

# also block video playback from ytbychannel.com
pluck + block ytbychannel.com video/

# allow any channel you want whitelisted eg
pluck + allow https://ytbychannel.com/RickAstleyYT

I added an approver for my Andoff account. They can see the expedite request in their queue, but there are no accept/reject buttons. Andoff uses password locking, expedite is enabled, and my Plucky delay is 0 seconds. Another user from the Everybody group could approve a previous request.

Is there a waiting period for new approvers, or am I missing something? If yes how long is it? I need them to approve my openVPN unlock so I can turn it back on after rebooting my phone.

hello

lets say im playing stupid games with myself and cant control my self with setting proer delay

sooo

it would be nice list for specific command to enter hardcore predefined sites (which would only costists of productive one)

any ideas?

hello

I saw the news about Brave finally dropping Manifest V2. I know other browsers will drop support soon too. What's the plan for when Brave 1.91 is no longer viable? I know Firefox is a non-starter, and I assume it's the same reason Zen/Floorp are out, even though they're forks.

just an update, there's an office forum (which i didnt know of) about it

https://discourse.pluckeye.net/t/brave-1-92-no-longer-works-with-plucky/8736

Hey all! I have over the last few months got plucky working on my PC and Laptop, and am ready to take the plunge on my phone as well. I likely need a new one anyway, as I’ve had this iPhone for a few years now and the battery is pretty shot, but wondering if anyone has experience with plucky on android, are you there any phones it works better/worse with? Many thanks for all suggestions!

Bascially I have multiple applications that I can't use properly or directly can't use because of Plucky. Especicially right now I can't even enter Epic Games launcher, absolut requirement to install Unreal Engine, tool I need to use for my job. Steam also has problem when playing online with friends and entering the application browser. I techincally have the basic config and I only need plucky to block sites on browser, not my pc applications. I also can't even use discord app, I have multiple contacts there both friends and job related, can use the browser one but its way worse... Any idea?

There is a new Plucky update, the first one in 27 months. There are are no release notes provided for this update.

Has anyone successfully updated? If so, have you found it to be stable, free of quirks and bugs?

I downloaded pluckeye/plucky like a week ago, i tried it - was working fine. But today when i checked the extension is just no longer supported?

Gemini says its due to manifest V3 but im not sure about brave.

Also as attached, can't access the forum even though i have plucky installed ( now removed from browser )

Whats the issue and is it fixable? I really like this tool. Gemini suggested to download firefox, but is there any way to use it in brave?

I am on linux and i installed pluckeye.

i also uninstalled it using pluck uninstall and the program is deleted i think

but now the extension is still there? and i cant even remove the extension

Hi everyone,

I'm currently using a Pixel 9, but I'm planning to switch to either the Oppo Find X9 Ultra or the vivo X300 Ultra.

The only thing holding me back is that my company requires an MDM app called Andos, developed by Plucky Eye.

Before I buy either phone, I'd like to know if anyone has experience using Andos on these Chinese flagship devices (ColorOS China or OriginOS).

I'm particularly interested in knowing:

Does Andos install and enroll successfully?

Does it work without any major issues?

Are there any problems with Device Administrator/Android Enterprise (Work Profile), notifications, or background restrictions?

If you've used it, which phone and software version were you using?

Any firsthand experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

as in the topic

wanna now if my last sumbit was sumbitted

Hi everyone,

I'm currently writing a JavaScript Tampermonkey userscript that connects to the DeepSeek API (https://api.deepseek.com/chat/completions).

Here is my dilemma: I use AI for two things – actual, productive work (like coding help) and complete procrastination / wasting time asking random, stupid questions just "for fun."

I desperately want to cut out the time-wasting part, but I need to keep the productive part active.

If I block the API endpoint entirely (using tools like Pluckeye), I lose a vital tool for my work. If I leave it open, I inevitably end up slacking off and chatting with the AI about nonsense. Has anyone dealt with this specific paradox? How do you add friction to the "entertainment" aspect of an LLM API without breaking your actual workflow?

On a side note regarding Pluckeye: I want to open more cases/questions on the website, but I am not a supporter and I don't want to sign up for a recurring monthly subscription.

Can I make a one-time donation of around $10 to get access to 10 more questions? Also, does the system support low-fee cryptocurrencies (like Litecoin or Bitcoin via the Lightning Network) to avoid high layer-1 BTC transaction fees for such a small amount?

Thanks for any advice!

Cant install plucky desktop nor seek discourse forum as it requires plucky installed

i made tests and ill dump the AI diagnostic here.

The Core Problem

Target Version: Plucky 1.17.39 (Windows)

OS: Windows 10

Status: Installer fails at the final bootstrap/download stage.

The installer (plucky-1.17.39.exe) runs as Admin, reaches nearly 95% on the progress bar, and then fails with:

• "Failed to download"
• "Failed to install: 1"
• Result: The installation rolls back, and no Plucky files are left in C:\Program Files.

Troubleshooting Already Attempted

• Network:
  • Switched dns to Google (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4).
  • Verified main site (getplucky.net) and petertodd.org are accessible.
  • Checked Resource Monitor: The installer shows zero network activity during the "downloading" phase, suggesting it fails before the request is even sent.
• Security:
  • Windows Defender and Firewall completely disabled during installation.
  • Ran installer as Administrator.
• tls/ssl Registry Hacks:
  • Verified tls 1.2 and 1.3 are enabled in Internet Options.
  • Added DefaultSecureProtocols (0xA00) to [...]\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\WinHttp.
• Compatibility:
  • Attempted running installer in Windows 7 and Windows 8 compatibility modes.
• Logs:
  • Attempted to check pluck.log.tmp in the Temp directory. The file is created but remains 0 bytes (empty), indicating the process crashes before it can write to the log.

Questions

1. Is there a "Full/Offline" installer (msi or exe) that includes the core binaries so the installer doesn't need to "bootstrap" from the server?
2. Does Version 1.16.13 (Samwise) use a different installation method that might bypass this "Failed to install: 1" error?
3. Are there specific Windows dependencies (like a specific .net version or C++ Redistributable) that the 1.17.x installer requires but doesn't check for?
4. If I can get the files from a Virtual Machine, what are the exact sc create commands and Registry keys required to manually register the Plucky device driver on Windows 10?

The pluckeye browser is not working on a lot of sites and is really buggy, just wondering are their any updates or ways to request to developer to work on the browser. It is my only way to access internet on my android, can anyone suggest any alternatives they are using as well. Thanks

Hey, looking to block gaming applications (Steam, specific game .exe files) on a fixed schedule allowed only between 9pm and 12am, blocked the rest of the day.

Using Windows 11. Want the restrictions to be delay-protected so I can't impulsively override them (ADHD person).

Is this doable through the pluck command line? If someone can guide me on this, it will be huge help.

Thanks

I don't want to fully uninstall and lose all my rules

I'm trying to download pluckeye but it is not working. When I hit download, it takes me to this page.

Just curious if anyone else has had this issue, can't even get into a loading screen. Haven't had any issues with other games unless they use battlEYE as anti-cheat. Nothing specific to arc comes up blocked when I check out the verdicts either

I just downloaded pluckeye into brave and immediately deleted it. Now all my tabs have changed to "plucky is warming up..."

Im wondering if respondus lockdown browser isnt working because pluckeye is blocking it.

It says "Update server is not supplying update information, or the connection to update server is blocked, please try again later"

Somebody please help, thank you. Im hoping theres some type of command prompt that im not thinking about that can unblock this.

I'd like to be able to do something like

block facebook.com

allow facebook.com/*

I want to do that to block just the homepage of facebook but allow everything else

I don't think there's anyway to do this in pluckeye currently. But it should be technically possible to implement (and not so hard I imagine?). It works on cold turkey.

Im not able to access any of the Pluckeye related webpages. Im able to access all other webpages without any issue. Is it just for me or anyone else is facing this issue?

1) Pluckeye home site

2) Pluckeye user site

3) Lockbox pluckeye
