What’s a False Dopamine Loop and How Does It Kill Productivity?

🔄 False dopamine loops are the feedback loops we can get into with constant notifications of messages, emails, etc., and responding to them.
🧠 Our brains anticipate a reward.
🧑‍💻 Dopamine does not actually bring us pleasure. Instead, it motivates us to do what we think will provide pleasure. For example, we anticipate a small boost from checking email.
📥 But that checking doesn’t really satisfy you, so you continue to turn your attention to notifications, and continue to hit refresh, in the hopes that pleasure will come, but it never really does. That’s a false dopamine loop.
🤓 Dopamine can be used for productivity. For example, it can drive us to complete a project. And it can drive our learning or research to help us make strides.
😖 But when we get into false dopamine loops by responding to every notification, that behavior can impede productivity. We never get a chance to do deep work because of all the interruptions and responses.

👋 WHO WE ARE:

Modern workplace communication isn’t working.

Comms is a new internal communication platform designed to bring sanity to your inbox and encourage deep work. Tools like Slack and SMS feel like slot machines built to distract you, while most email tools create information silos and lack any real prioritization.

With Comms, you eliminate the noise. Communication is organized by priority level, so a "Thank you" message isn’t treated the same as an urgent request.

Comms fosters effective async communication where messages are open and discoverable. This eliminates the need for toxic online status icons that chain you to your desk just to "look busy."

Comms redefines work.
