| This was posted on HN a while ago and I started using it then. I've accumulated quite a bit of data and have used both export and import. That's turned out to be the most useful feature for me I've used other trackers, ones focused on CBT. My only suggestion is to allow text notes in each entry, so I can track emotional states or recurring thoughts |

| This looks great! I use Loop Habit Tracker¹ on Android which at a glance seems similar. I wish someone could pair a habit tracker with a CalDAV task tracker like jtx Board². ¹ https://f-droid.org/packages/org.isoron.uhabits

| I love this. My only gripe is that I wish habit trackers were more evidenced-based for some real accountability. "Work out 25 minutes" is such an easy habit to fudge by showing up late to the gym, but if you know 22 minutes can't get you the tick mark, you do the extra work required to create the space in your schedule. With vision models, evidence-ing should be easy, but what's the best way to make it privacy first without needing a dedicate GPU tower at home? |

| ▲ | a-dub 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | i would say, be generous with yourself in terms of tracking showing up at all since that alone is huge (and most important for sustaining the behavior). if you notice that you're slipping and showing up late too often, maybe create another habit for being on time? i don't understand the rationale behind cheating one's own self improvement journal. what's the end game? | | |
| ▲ | alluro2 30 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Self-destruction, via small acts of self-sabotage. Next day, your inner critic and saboteur tell you something along the lines of: "You shouldn't go today - you're tired, there's so much work that you should do instead, and you're not even doing the gym actually/properly (AGAIN), just look at yesterday, you couldn't even do 25 min, you've cheated and have now tainted it". Even though it was the same exact voice that led you to do it yesterday. | | |
| ▲ | a-dub 18 minutes ago | parent [-] | | i don't think that computer vision gates or even an ai agent trying to enforce accountability are going to help all that much in that case. maybe try a therapist or a real-life accountability partner. | | |
| ▲ | pj_mukh 6 minutes ago | parent [-] | | I’ve tried it all. No real life partner can be there on the hour (most accountability partner systems work on a daily/weekly basis). “Friends” definitely don’t work. An automated measurement system is the way to go. Like the poster above you said, the “cheating” rarely happens in a binary Yes/No situation or me going into a log and editing it (that would obviously be silly). It happens in the rolling measurements, the 22mins vs 25 mins hard day gray zone situations |

| I don’t mind AI-written code. But an obviously generated README.md is such a turn off. If you don’t take the time to explain what your software does in your own words, I struggle to trust that it’s been thought about much at all. |

It matters what country or city the developer is from or ahah language it’s written in or what machines were used or how the electric was sourced Who cares! | |

| Absolutely fantastic, for an age I've yearned for an iOS version of Loop Habit Tracker! Great work. |
