Sometimes the old-fashioned ways are best.  We got something like 25
years out of a wind-up timer before the bell fell off the back.

I just use the one in my phone, since it's nearly always nearby, I'll
hear it go off (unlike the wind-up timer on the stove, which I probably
won't hear at the other end of the house).  I wish mine only did go off
for a few seconds and quit.

Others have suggested things like gnome-clock (the desktop toolbar
gadget, I believe), and the equivalent for other desktop systems.

I notice that Mate has a timer app that can be put on the toolbar, it
pops up a dialogue when done, but is silent.
