| We make practically no money from our work on ActivityWatch and have other things going on, like work and studies, that may cause development to slow at times. But with that in mind we think this is important software (if you agree, donate!) so we're building for the long term. Our goal is simply to build an as useful tool as possible for as many people as possible.
