This is the opposite of what works for me.
Leaning a little into the the distractions, and building processes to quickly search and hop between things had made it better for me.
At the very least opening tabs with Ctrl+T, tab search with Ctrl+Shift+A, quickly closing them with Ctrl+W is my main workflow in Chrome-based browsers.
Once I get my speed up, I find distractions don't occur as often.
Emacs, org-mode, magit, and AI, combined with good sleep, weight lifting, stimulants, have almost completey nullified my ADHD problems.
It's been a hard slog to get here though.
Could you please elaborate, ideally in as much detail as you're comfortable sharing, on your Emacs and adjacent (org-mode, magit, any kind of syncing to your mobile phone with org-mode if that's done) workflow please. Often I find seeing people's real workflows (in detail and not wishy-washy) to be helpful since it gives me a concrete nucleus to crystallise off of... so to speak.
I'd be curious to compare our efficiency and output.
But like, that's the thing isn't it?
You're dying.
Why cling to false narratives of "efficiency" and "output".
Be human. Be not bot.
I'm not dying anytime soon, as far as I plan.
I care about efficiency and output because I care about being able to be productive and not just letting my thoughts take me constantly astray.
Nothing to do with being a bot.
