I’ve actually found using screentime limits on my phone for specific apps (which is essentially self limiting) to be very effective. Once time is up, there’s only a single button click stopping me from continuing doomscrolling, but that’s just enough friction that I’m able to say “oh right I don’t need to be doing this”.

Chrome on Android also has per-site limits, which I've also found useful in addition to the overall app limit.

15 minutes on HN, then I'm out even if I still have a Chrome limit.

It's really interesting that we have to resort to little jails like this to get our attention back.
