that will help to make the terminal slower!
Of course; it uses Systemd.
It will not.

Honestly I don’t understand what this is showing. I guess it’s how long the lid was open?
Speaking of bash prompt: https://mina86.com/2015/bash-right-prompt/
If there is no lid (desktop pc), then it takes into account only systemd start and suspend messages, which is probably enough. Elegant!
Accumulative duration of working sessions. Work session is a period of time limited by any of “start” events and any of “end” events. E.g between “system started” and “suspend on”, or between “lid opened” and “system turn off”. Type of events determined by regex. Effectively it’s a screen time for most of people.
Interesting, I'd complete it with KDE Connect to add mobile usage.
I don’t know about android, but on iPhone only way to export screen time data is to screenshot it. Probably android is also restrictive.
No idea on iOS, specifically left the OS due to its lack of interoperability.
On Android I did test but https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.atharok.screentime/ or https://f-droid.org/en/packages/godau.fynn.usagedirect/ looks like good candidate. I'm not sure if they have export or publish to API functions but I image at this point would be relatively easy to add.
You know better, I never have had an Android, but some time ago I've tried searching if you can get screen time data older than 2 months and came to conclusion you can't do it on Android either. But probably it's not an issue if you can automate export and perform it regularly.
It would've been cool to have accumulative screen time across all devices. But as iOS user I don't dream of it.

Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
