About Deep Dive
Deep Dive is an active productivity timer built for the GNOME desktop. Based on the concept of "Submerging," it operates on the principle that deep work requires strict boundaries.
When you start a timer, you are going underwater where distractions cannot reach you. You either finish the dive, or you deliberately "Give Up" and surface early.
Submerge Mode: Locks the timer, preventing pausing or skipping.
Break Overlays: Forces you to take a screen break with a full-screen overlay.
Do Not Disturb: Automatically silences system notifications during work blocks.
Project Tracking and Stats: Logs focused time against specific projects securely on your device.
