My name is Robert. I'm technical but not "technical". I've done several startups, ran a technical recruiting firm and have interviewed thousands of people. Have also run a consulting firm focused on helping companies modernize, adopt microservices and model their existing and new systems. Currently, building a stable of SaaS apps with my very technical business partner. Because we know developers so well, we built a product that helps them to plan their day, focus and reduce interruptions. Would love to hear any feedback as to whether our solution makes sense for the dev community. pomodus.com/ Looking forward to being part of the community.
I looked at your website and the product sounds interesting although I didn't give it a try I have a few questions
Does it work on Linux? Apparently yes but it's not really specified.
Does it turn down notifications from your OSes (Android, KDE Plasma, etc)
I've worked with Pomodoro for some time and found it very impractical. I have hours long streaks that I don't want to break every 25 minutes but also times where I talk around and do nothing particular. What I found to be more efficient is to be goal-based. Cut down your work into incremental achievable tasks and work non-stop on that until it's done. Which coincides rather well with commits by the way. So, rather than fixed-length slots, something that helps you break down your tasks into a fine-grained todo would be more adequate for my workflow.
An integration with Toggl would be awesome
Thank you :)
