I still have a few subreddits I passively maintain and every three days on the most popular one I'm banning some new app someone is shilling to a vulnerable group. It's absolutely disgusting and makes me so incredibly angry/jaded how much they're targeted.

ADHD "helper" apps, productivity apps, etc. Good UX should be for everyone and be accommodating. ADHD folks don't need something special 99/100 times.
