My lizard brain is no match for infinite scroll

I keep setting things like this up (Current: Pi-hole) but my problem is I break through it virtually instantly because I'm the one that set it up (Current bypass: Log in to pihole, disable)

Anyone know of a way that could thwart someone who's ~20 years in to computing? Doesn't have to be clever, just needs to be enough of a road block to not be worth the effort bypassing. If there's an exploit past the roadblock I'll find it haha

"Just be more disciplined", etc: I know but it turns out we're fighting ADHD here, working on that front separately

SelfControl for Mac works well.

Otherwise, the block is sometimes just enough to make you second-guess your browsing habit. There's only a uBlock rule between me and reddit, and no limits on my iPad, but the extra effort is a reminder that I don't want to visit that website.

I had a scheduled task to turn of my desk top at 21:50. then multiple tasks but they were subject to the whim of just disablin them. Turns out if it's a random moment between 21:30~22:30, I dont get the urge to disable it. but then it has to non nullable when it happens.
