Description

I would prefer not to receive break notifications when running full screen applications as break notifications cause the full screen application to minimize.

When I play games or run other full screen applications it would be great if Stretchly could set itself to do not disturb or disable itself.

When the full screen application is closed, Stretchly would revert to its previous state and act as per usual.

Ideally this feature could be toggled in the settings section.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research how to detect full screen windows on each supported operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux) using available APIs such as native modules or Electron's built in features. Look into implementing a polling mechanism or event listener to check if any full screen application is active, and integrate with Stretchly's existing do not disturb feature.
