Are there any good FOSS time tracking tools can that periodically take snapshots of your screen? (kbin.social)

This is a feature of manictime that I find incredibly useful, I'd love to know if anyone is familiar with a FOSS tool that has similar functionality.

that's exactly what I'd like to use it for, although using shareX for this seems a little inconvenient? I assume it wouldn't have any sort of timeline feature to go along with it? will it start the auto capture automatically when my laptop is powered on or even comes out of standby?

Would a timeline really provide much benefit over viewing screenshots in a folder?

This one has a calendar:
