Total time is not the correct sum of tasks about super-productivity HOT 6 OPEN

This is a bit of an off-topic suggestion but I wonder if you might add some kind of cross-instance bus via a BroadcastChannel and ping for other running instances during application startup, then bail out with a "there is already a running instance" type warning if there is a response from an already running instance.

Could you open up a new issue for this?

Okay, opened #2987

Thank you very much for opening up this issue! I am currently a bit overwhelmed by the many requests that arrive each week, so please forgive me, if I fail to respond personally. I am still very likely to at least skim read your request and I'll probably try to fix all (real) bugs if possible and I will likely review every single PR being made (please, give me a heads up if you intent to do so) and I will try to work on popular requests (please upvote via thumbs up on the original issue) whenever possible, but trying to respond to every single issue over the last years has been kind of draining and I need to adjust my approach for this project to remain fun for me and to make any progress with actually coding new stuff. Thanks for your understanding!

Thank you very much for reporting! So far I've been unable to reproduce this.

I'm wondering if this may have happened from accidentally having multiple instances open at once corrupting the time entries if they might have both been recording. I'm not sure what you're using as a data store but I could see that being problematic. I try to avoid having multiple instances open but I am using a multi-monitor setup spanning multiple virtual desktops and it's easy to not realize if the app is already open sometimes!
