Time Spent On This Document

I think it would be nice if there is a feature that keeps track of the time you spend on each Docs(not Rem).
Sometimes I find it’s a pain to actually sit down to write, but having a feature that keeps track of the time spent may have some kind of effect similar to Parkinson’s Law, which could motivate users to write more in less time and provide a kind of metric to measure accomplishment.

Hi @econmajor,

Firstly, Happy new year :slight_smile: :partying_face:

I just wanted to drop you a note to say how I thought this was a great idea. I have the ability to start with all the best of intentions and end up ‘attacking’ 1,000 different things that I find interesting! It may mildly make for a slightly more interesting conversation with my family later on in the day, but I have done very little of the work that I intended doing!

I use a pomodoro app. It’s ok but I have no idea of how much effort it takes for me, measured in minutes, hours, days etc, to produce a document, a piece of work, an article etc. Your idea would be the answer to this issue for me.

I hope that this gets some traction and at some point the devs will be able to prioritse this.

All the best to you an yours. I trust you are all keeping well and safe.
