This is a weird question to ask but why's your website German for me? Edit: Oh, I got it. This submission links to the English version, but the "the next elim." link at the top links to a not specifically English URL, and going from there to any other page gets me to the German version. Huh.

Time to learn German then ;-) Good find! Let us get this fixed.

I'm German, that's why I was spooked! I'm not in Germany and nothing on my system should be set to German so I was worried you might be applying some sort of mind-reading analytics tech.
Opening the page the first time it starts at the bottom and i need to scroll up. Opening it a second time it works fine (starts at the top). Behavior replicated with new private window. This isnt an issue worth fixing, just wanted to mention it in case its directly apparent what isnt correctly initialized. I (and i think most others) prefer this over the site not working without javascript. Requiring to unblock a ran…
Interesting... obviously not how it should be. Can you share the browser (and version) you are using?
Again, this is much preferable over the site not loading. I am not that familiar with web development but it looks like something that isnt initialized correctly (likely set afterwards in js?). Its really not worth putting in the effort to try to debug it if its not obvious.
Its pretty clear that its a side effect of the blockers so you shouldnt be worried about bad impressions. I took it as a very good sign that the page just loaded as is anyway, especially given that you are working with quite sensitive information. Anyone with a similar setup will likely take it the same way as they are used to sites not working.
This way i was able to look at it, which i wouldnt have if the site required any additional scripts. That should count as a win and a job well done.
I've been using Monica [1] for the personal CRM and it does what it is supposed to do. It's a basic web app and lacks the sophistication moderns apps have, but it hasn't died for 5 years at least. Just FYI. [1] https://www.monicahq.com/
If "relationships matter" and you need an app to remind you of that, I'd posit you have a larger problem than any app can solve. Consider putting down the device and connecting with your peeps in the real world every once in a while.
Life gets busy. I want to drop a note to my distant family regularly, but between work and family and friends and hobbies, sometimes out of sight becomes out of mind. I like having a periodic nudge to ping that far-off person. Today I’m using Things for that, with repeating tasks to text so-and-so periodically. Something that integrates that with a record of what we talked about last time (so I can follow up with them) or alert me on special days would be nice.
I do all this because I care about those people and want to make a special effort to keep up with them. If I didn’t care, I wouldn’t be interested.

I read it as Elim, as in Elim Garak, a famous tailor from a relatively well-known sci-fi show. That isn't really any better in terms of connotations, though.
Everyone's favourite station tailor has no part in this (sadly) ;-) I have to ask my cofounder about this, as she came up with the name. I remember it meaning something like "an oasis in the desert" which is quite fitting to the whole loneliness problem.
Congrats on the launch! What features are on your roadmap to make it more CRM than personalized greeting cards? There's also https://www.monicahq.com/ , an open source personal CRM that doesn't allow you to directly engage with people like elim allows.
