after reading your other comments in this thread, I completely agree, and maintain things the same way. I've found that by closing slack, I can get multiple orders of magnitude more work done in a day, which is crazy. I have everything set up so that iff I am directly mentioned, or directly messaged, I'll get a ping, otherwise it won't bother me. Same with email (Everything without me & only me in the TO field gets filtered into a folder that I'm not sent push notifications for). This way, I've found, lets me be far more productive, and I still feel that I respond to requests faster than 80% of anyone else in our company, so I don't think there's much drawback.
