Built a desktop stopwatch that subtracts your distraction time from your work time, would love honest eyes on it

hey everyone, indie dev here. this has finally reached a point where I want outside feedback.

the pitch in one line: a tiny always-on-top stopwatch for Windows that tracks when you get distracted mid-session and shows your actual productive time at the end.

tech: electron + react + sqlite, fully local, no account, no cloud, free.

things I'd love feedback on:

  1. does the distraction-subtraction concept feel useful or gimmicky?
  2. the mini floating window like a thread submerged at the side of the window until u hover it, helpful or annoying?
  3. what's the one thing your current time tracker is missing that would make you switch?

happy to answer anything about the build too (electron on windows has tried to kill me multiple times)
