ADHD-pro-advice: Use your OS settings to suppress red „unread“-badges! Don‘t let them shove the pile of distraction into your face at all times. Instead, create reminders to actively _pull_ communication. Adjust the number of those reminders and the time blocked after each so that you can cope with the amount of communication coming in - but do that on your terms and schedule, not on theirs.

In technical terms: you’re not the PubSub-server, you’re a client polling for messages when your resources allow for it.
