Honestly, not much helps so I’m here for other ideas too.
If I can’t remove myself to a quiet place, noise canceling earbuds are my go-to as well. I have airpod pros too, and they’re ok, but Jabra’s active noise cancellation has been by far the best in my experience. So far, anyway.
Going outside does help, too. It’s not quiet, necessarily, but sounds bounce differently, so it’s much less overwhelming.
Apple announced an upcoming update of the noise cancellation on the AirPods Pro I’m looking forward to see if it helps.
