The Mindful Desktop - How to Increase Your Productivity in the Attention Economy
fd93.me
If you just want the VirtualBox VM for this article without the philosophising, skip to the appendix. We live in a world full of distractions. In the modern "attention economy" it's more of a challenge to avoid content and advertising than it is to find it. Nowhere is this more …

Hey all, I wrote this article with some practical advice on how to resist the attention economy (think notifications, shorts, ads, etc) by setting up a desktop for mindful engagement.

It also includes a VirtualBox VM with a lightweight sample environment so you can try it out and see what I mean in the article.

Hope this is helpful! :)

    I liked the article for writing things down that I had in my mind but could never really put into words. Ever since trying a tiling window manager I’ve always felt this pull towards this kind of workflow, but couldn’t put a finger on it.

    Thanks for sharing!
