No feedback or experience, but site (https://www.startallback.com/) loads fine here.

In general, it's not the best idea to play around/replace such essential system components, except if it's that important to you.

Would excel work? Using Ctrl ; inserts date and Ctrl shift ; inserts time.

Can you share the formula somehow?

Someone once shared with me a Google Sheet/Excel file with the formulas ready as well as easy to use buttons to clock in and clock out.

See https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_477uFgLbEN8oSWWbidK8RpWdicX2sz9syAGzTFNFy8/copy

I'm looking for something not tech savvy at all, just a simple toolbar to clock in and clock out

IME, once you get the formula set up on Excel, it's super simple.
It's especially great as you can modify it to your exact needs.

There are lots of online options if you search, this one sounded familiar to me but I haven't tried any.

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

"feature rich.." nope! Just want a start and stop button. Again an Excel doesn't have a quick toolbar shortcut. This should be the easiest simplest thing in existence.

Windows has a built in stopwatch in the Clock app, but I assume you want a drop more features than that.

TBH "feature rich" doesn't always mean it's not also simple for simple use cases.

Check out https://clockify.me/ which I think is pretty simple and good for your use case.

It should.
I'm sure there are many apps for that? If it's an option.
