That was going to be my question, don't you just distract yourself more instead with other, non digital, things?

Sorry mate. Missed this. My ability to get distracted with physical things have a limit. I'll tidy up, do some chores, then once I've expended that I'll get on with whatever I need to focus on.
Thinking it's more like a child blocker. But I've had battles with addiction and issues myself with keeping focused. Being able to have some kind of actual switch for what I can access often acts as a mental toggle. It changes my mode so to speak and I end up getting more done.
There's tons of cool free filters or blockers etc but I love your method. A physical button could be great for that mental switch aspect I was talking about.
