Today my OS (vanilla Ubuntu 22.04) warned me that I had only a couple of GB left on my main disk. After some dinging I found that aw-watcher-window was spamming my disk with error logs. For example ~/.cache/activitywatch/log/aw-watcher-window is currently 160GB.

In those large log files, I see basically every second an entry like this:

2022-12-05 09:17:59 [ERROR]: Exception thrown while trying to get active window  (aw_watcher_window.main:110)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Xlib/protocol/display.py", line 583, in send_and_recv
BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Are you using the latest version? Seems like the error was fixed some time ago: ActivityWatch/aw-core#114

By the way, this issue seems to be relevant to ActivityWatch/activitywatch#756

If I can reconstruct correctly, I was (and still am) running version 0.12.1 (installed Nov 6th 2022), which was latest version at that time

Hmm... Maybe it was fixed only for Windows...
