Classic Pomodoro and I were together for years — the usual 25 minutes of work, 5 minutes of break routine on every pomodoro timer. At first it was cute, but then it started interrupting me right when I was finally focused. Total buzzkill.

Last month, I found this thing called Reverse Pomodoro on Customodoro Timer (https://customodoro.vercel.app/). Instead of telling me when to stop, it just lets me work as long as I want and rewards me with a break based on how long I stayed in the zone.

Example:

  • 20 mins → 2 min break
  • 45 mins → 10 min break
  • 60 mins → 30 min break

Plus, you can customize almost everything — work/break lengths, themes, even track your productivity like a GitHub contribution graph.

Feels way more natural than the rigid timer, and my productivity hasn't tanked once.

Anyone else ditched classic Pomodoro for something more flexible?
