The problem
Remote work removes every natural break trigger. No coffee chat, no walking to a meeting room, no "see you at lunch". Most remote workers either burn out (no breaks) or drift into Slack/news/Twitter rabbit holes (broken breaks). Tomadora reinstates the structure — 25 minutes deep, 5 minutes recovery, repeated.
Why Tomadora fits
- Tray app stays out of your way until you need it. No window switching, no Chrome tab to lose.
- Break content gives your eyes (and brain) a context switch from the work you just did.
- Cross-platform — works the same on the laptop, the home Linux box, and the work Windows machine.
- Strict mode prevents Slack drift during the recovery period.
- Free, no team admin needed — install on your personal device.
