cold turkey was a rather good app for doing this on Windows (7) because it didn't allow you to reset your hosts file back until the timer was done (or at least made it really hard). Rescuetime is also similar but I think it was more of a reporting app than blocking app. Anyway my addiction was reddit (facebook, twitter never appealed to me in the first place) and my niravan was an openwrt router that my brother gifted me. It had a hosts blocker and i changed the password to unknown. Only way to get back was to do a hard reset and that meant doing umpteen setting up tasks like ppoe, adguard, hosts, etc which made it quite a friction. The only workaround was browsing on 4g and thankfully 4g here is very slow which made browsing ridiculous. Soon the addiction was cured.
