Application to limit program usage (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi there, I am looking for a way to limit the time the system allows me to spend in program x.
Basically, I want it to go: Oh, you've been playing that for 2 hours. Now, time to touch some grass.

I couldn't find any existing programs for that, only screen time clients, which is not what I am after. Any ideas?

OS: Linux Mint

I've never used it, but Timekpr-nExT says that it does this, and it appears to be packaged in Debian trixie, so it's probably in all the Debian-family distros.
