activitywatch and rescuetime are the two options i know of.
activitywatch looks really good. thanks for the link!
rescuetime looks nice but is actually mac/win only.
Toggl is web based. I have used that in the past with success.
I heard of Toggl but I can't wrap my head around how -- a web-based app can even know what i'm working on -- in other tabs or outside browser (which for me is 90% of meaningful work)?
They have a desktop app and browser extensions.
They discontinued the Linux desktop app IIRC fyi
It has been like 2-3 years since I’ve used it, but if i remember correctly you name the topic you’re working on and can tag it to an existing project. Its made to quickly label a sub task and start the timer, then you can organize the time blocks later or at the end of a working session. It really is quick and intuitive. Good luck!
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.
