The amount of connectedness is a spectrum. DK [1] is at one extreme end of the spectrum, the other end is getting a notification at any time of the day or night when you get an email and immediately reading it.
We all have different jobs, and all jobs require different amounts of connectedness. But if you want, you can move slowly towards DK's end of the spectrum. I don't have email on my phone, for instance. While inconvenient sometimes, the benefits outweigh the costs. And when I want to do deep work, I close Thunderbird.
[1] Such appropriate initials.
