I went through what I'd consider my version of this with RSS blog feeds back in the 00s. It wasn't a problem with notifications distracting me, it was the constant feeling that I wasn't keeping up with the feed (and I wasn't). Took a while to notice the stress it was contributing to my life but eventually it dawned on me and I had to drop the RSS feeds all together to get rid of it (every feed was to important to cut). So I switched to a different medium (reddit + hn) where there wasn't that feeling of a feed to keep up with.
