from the available options I take, that there is some way to pause the timer, but I just can't figure out how. Sorry if it is listed somewhere and I just dont get it.

If you use dunst, you can use its context menu to pause the timer. You need dmenu or a drop-in dmenu replacement like rofi -dmenu for it to work. You can set dmenu=<path to dmenu> in ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc and after restarting dunst daemon, you can middle click on the notification to access the context menu.

This is from ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc-

[global]
    dmenu = /usr/bin/rofi -dmenu -p  rofi -theme-str " window {location: north east; x-offset: -370px; y-offset: 50px; width: 500px;}" -hover-select -me-select-entry '' -me-accept-entry MousePrimary -i

    mouse_left_click = close_current
    mouse_middle_click = do_action, close_current
    mouse_right_click = close_all

Thanks a lot, I have not yet gotten it to work but that is because of dunst.
