Can anyone point me to bookmarklets / extensions to fight UI dark patterns like preventing infinite scroll, hiding reactions or batching notifications?

Can you try to look for something from a timer’s angle? Block the website/app after a certain minutes per day or something like that. Otherwise, can you experiment with doing just one thing at a time, even if social, say -- start the timer on your watch for 10-min and do just your Instagram scrolls but when that timer stops, you stop Instagram and do your work or something else.
