I've been trying it out recently to some degree of success, finding the right intervals was the hard part, 25-5 feels like absolute torture to me.

Is anyone else giving it ago?

I found pomodoro to be great for eating the elephant one bite at a time. If I have a large task or project that just needs time to work on the constituent parts, for me it’s a great way to set up guardrails so I don’t wander into another obscure corner of the internet. Gamifying this kind of work is helpful for me.
