This also happens with work-related messengers and calls.
After transitioning to remote work during lockdown, chat&calls suddenly become mandatory to look at ASAP. Now I sometimes get multiple urgend messages while beeing on a surprising call. In the office, these people would see that I'm busy and wait. Now I have to line them up and prioritize them myself..
It took me a while to figure out that a few hours of this process could ruin a full day of productivity + requires much more mental work to regenerate after.
I do have ADHD though - so this is one of my biggest issues even under normal circumstances.
