The smaller stack exchanges are a really wonderful source of content I never thought I needed to know. I always check out the "hot network questions" side panel when I land on stack overflow and almost always find something interesting.

I always get sucked in to the addicting Hot Network Questions as well when I land on Stack Overflow, which is why I need to block the entire sidebar so that I can get some work done!

I also block the Hot Network Questions on Stack Exchange sites while at work – though not when using my home profile. As a Firefox user, I simply added the following lines to my `userContent.css`:

    @-moz-document
        domain("stackoverflow.com"),
        domain("superuser.com"),
        domain("serverfault.com"),
        domain("askubuntu.com"),
        domain("stackexchange.com")
    {
        #hot-network-questions {
            display: none;
        }
    }

I do this too! Firefox - uBlock's "Block Element" feature.

I always thought they were about "networking" as in IT so they'd really confuse me.
