Ask HN: What do you use for blocking yourself from websites, apps, etc.?
Looking for something to break the habit cycle of checking phone/websites/unnecessary email on phone and desktop. Suggestions?

I use the addon uBlock Origin with custom rules in "My Filters"
||quora.com^
local-zone: "myvisualiq.net" always_nxdomain
ip route add blackhole 1.1.1.1 # etc...NextDNS lets you block various preset apps, or any specific domains you specify, with a schedule option to allow them to resolve during certain hours. Since it works at the DNS level you can set it up on nearly any device, and since it's hosted remotely it still works when those devices leave your home network (unlike PiHole).
