AM Wostan (ID: 0000004785356cf2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/08/2023 Just found out that this exists today and it got me playing Habitica too. I don't know how I didn't know about it before. It ticks all the boxes for me and works perfectly. I really like that you can customize the sounds that play when the timers end. Overall, Love it.

Qwerty David (ID: 000000d791105f5a) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/12/2023 This is genuinely my favorite extension. It takes a little bit of self discipline to resist the urge to always activate vacation mode, but apart from that, it works like a treat (maybe making vacation mode a reward could help?) The only complaint I have is that same complaint many others have: you should be able to pause the timer. It can still lock you out of the site when you pause the timer. It just doesn't feel fair to have the timer always running, since most of the time you need to get up to do little things like go to the bathroom, or drink water, or eat, or maybe some emergency crops up. And I feel like it kinda defeats the purpose in the first place, since it's better and healthier to take regular breaks and get up more often than having to stay glued to the screen for 1 hour because the timer is always ticking down.
