That's why I don't understand how some developers are able to code while listening to music.

For me heavily depends on the music. Just been listening to heavy drum and bass for the past 2 hours and been in absolute hyperfocus. Music is the best for me, should be familiar and not have too many lyrics tho.

Sometimes it's drum and bass, mostly some synthwave/chill beats.

Edit: But the problem here is. If I am already exhausted and got distracted by those noises, then getting into focus with just music often does not work. I do have adhd and it could be that misophonia is playing into it too. Still trying to figure out my best work environment, but it's hard

I'd echo exactly everything in this comment.

I feel like Concerta marginally helps with this, but it's tough to remember the last time I've had to test it.

I listen to rap a lot when coding.
