I'm rediscovering the use of a blue SAD light for productive works/study time.

Also Newton's cradle is good for setting a beat

I cannot wrap my head around what that accomplishes any different than just setting DND, which isn’t hard.

People ignore DND statuses. Regular DND means you are online and will still get a notification because win11 doesn't take no for any answer.

This way it shows you are busy and if someone messages you you don't get a sound or popup because you are presenting your screen.

Yeah Teams does seem impossible to DND at times. I’ve got a 3 monitor setup and never present from the monitor that my notifications comes through (the default). Probably why I never noticed it as an issue.

If you go into the windows notification centre there is a focus button that handles that for you I think.
