Note that i made this for myself and just my first time sharing an application i made here

Came up with this application with one aim in mind...To Control daily limit for myself as my doomscrolling had worsened quite a lot even while working. So decided to make this as an alternative to Digital wellbeing on Android.

It supports:

focus mode

per app daily limits

background daemon

so far i was able to make it work only on GNOME mutter and all x11 because that is my system...will consider updating in future if this receives positive reviews

I use fedora 44 workstation and it runs perfectly for me...and also tied it on manjaro and linux mint on my VMs with x11 , worked there too....so please check for yourselves and do tell me how it goes

NOTE: if you are a dev then please feel free to contribute
