I use Teams but I usually just leave on read as a signal to get to it later when I have time. I have notifs muted. But I'm also not pinged so often that I need tactics like this article. Good stuff.
It's "unread", not "on read" by the way. I would not normally mention this type of correction, but I've noticed it more frequently and the two phrases are antonyms, unlike the common "lose"/ "loose" mistake.
