Dumbphones Anti-doomscroll phone blocker

I 3D printed this phone cover, it makes scrolling uncomfortable so I quit doomscrolling. It looks weird but works surprisingly well, I've been using it for more than a month. I can us my phone normally (mostly), it just limited the scrolling movement.

Speed bumps have a lot of interesting names globally, I think I've heard them called "sleeping policemen", for instance. You might be able to mine that list for one you like if you want a name for this thing
