There are browser extensioms and apps that can set time limits or block websites entirely.

Can be a good start, but unless you find away to replace those habits with other habits you'll most likely just relapse sooner or later. Take everything I say with a grain of salt, because we have a little blind leading the blind situation here, but what occasionally helped me was something as simple as just asking myself "am I actually having fun right now?", because most likely the answer is "not really". And sometimes that's enough to make me power down my PC and go do something else.
Other than that it's like any addiction, so just go research that. With the added bonus that it's a little hard keeping your substance of choice out of reach, like how you'd stop having beer at home if you decided to stop drinking, since you do use your Computer/Phone for constructive things and then those sites are just a click away.

Oh, also one thing that almost completely broke my habit of scrolling before bed and right after waking up, was getting and old school alarm clock and keeping my phone in another room at night.

You should schedule time to do other things. Try posting on /o/ or a hobby/interest board. Commit 15mins a day to learning a language or another skill. Don't get carried away and think you have to be some turbo autistic hobbycel practicing like 8hours a day so you can try and be a famous artist and finally feel good enough to be loved.
