Hey PH, Breaks launched here a week ago and has come a long way since. Biggest update: it's now on the Mac App Store (free), which makes installation one click and updates automatic. Since the original launch: editable break suggestions, Calendar export for focus sessions, streak tracking with pause-day budgets, and idle detection that asks whether the lost time still counts. Still 100% local. No accounts, no telemetry, no subscription. Would love to hear from anyone who's been running it, what's working, what's missing?
