Thanks for such a great program, I really think it will be an even better replacement for me than RescueTime.
I use the pomodoro technique so I really appreciate that you all have that in your system. However, I have a suggestion for a tweak.
I try to do 4 pomodoro cycles, then a long break, then another 4, then a lunch break (usually an hour, lunch with a coworker, mentee or mentor), then another 4 - long break - 4 pomodoros, then go home.
I appreciate that I can set the time for my short and long breaks, but it would be helpful if I could have one plan to run when I get to the office that would do the following :
4 - 25minute/5minute cycles of pomodoro
1 - 15 minute long break
4 - 25minute/5minute cycles of pomodoros
1 - 60 minute Lunch break
4 - 25minute/5minute cycles of pomodoro
1 - 15 minute long break
4 - 25minute/5minute cycles of pomodoros
I considered doing it as a scheduled focus time pattern, but I get to the office at different times each day and i don't want it to start without me or have to wait for it to start.
To sum up, I appreciate the pomodoro system and the ability to set focus times, as well as two types of break times, but I would like a "full work day with lunch hour" type-pomodoro plan that I could start in the morning and it would hold me accountable all day.
I hope this makes sense, let me know if you need clarifications.
