It may be a little weird, but the from us music from brain.fm really helps me.

I’ve measured the work I get done over sprints where I listen to brain.fm and where I don’t, and I usually get 2-3 more cards done of weeks that I do.

Not a scientific measurement, but it is what it is.

I have ADHD (professionally diagnosed as an adult) and basically cannot focus without music. I complained at work about endpoint management software that was interfering with my music player and was told I didn't need to listen to music while working.

I WFH so I just found another way to play music, but it was tempting to point out to my boss (who I otherwise quite like) that he had just told me that I shouldn't be using a reasonable accommodation for my disability that costs the company nothing, lol.

To suffer from ADHD is to suffer alone.

The world does not care for us and does not care about us. The world would rather attempt to hammer us screws in than try and use a drill.

I'm intrigued, but brain.fm requires a credit card for a free trial. Bummer.

Edit: I just checked my email and (in the spam folder) was an email from them with a link that works for 3 days. I'm trying it now.

Not to excuse these dark patterns from shitty products that can't get revenue without tricking people, but privacy.com lets you set up single-use credit cards with e.g. a $1 lifetime limit. This is my go-to for places like this if I really, really want to try it.

You might enjoy the binaural beats and ambient radio on https://ambiph.one as a free alternative (disclosure: it's my site). Not as science-y as brain.fm but it helps me a lot with focus

Wow - nice work! Your site looks and works great. Thanks for sharing it.

[matteason]

Thanks, glad you like it! I'm all ears if you have any suggestions (here or there's a feedback form linked at the bottom)

You have created a fantastic site. Endless combinations.

FWIW I’ve been using brainfm for about 8 years.

Granted, I got my account with a lifetime subscription back when they were just spinning up, but I’ve used them pretty consistently since then.
