I find that altering my hosts file manually and using the new focus feature on MacOS Monterey fits perfectly for my workflow.
I don’t have installed apps that distract me. It’s simply websites (Reddit being the worst in my case) and notifications.
I’m also using a separate user account for dev work and everyone at work knows I check slack and my emails twice a day and they can call me at any time. I’ve found it cuts down on distractions because it’s easy for people to ping me with small things but they feel a significant reason is needed for calls.
Focus on iOS has all notifications muted in my work profile but allows calls from my co-workers and partner.
- bfioca 5y agoThose are great ideas. I love the new Focus features in Monterey, too. One thing that MacOS can’t do is tell you when to stop working for the day once you’ve gotten enough focus work done. That feature is the one I use the most in this new version and I rely on it every day.
