I like the gamified approach. I'm starting to think of doing similar for some productivity ideas I have. Too much going on to start something new though.

Re: Show HN: Roadmap – A Personal Growth Game for Social Anxiety
#72Not every problem can or should be solved with some app. This one is a perfect example. Often social anxiety is a symptom of an underlying problem. This app seems to try to treat that symptom, which will do no good. If person wants to solve their social anxiety problem they should seek professional help from licensed professional who will try to fix the underlying problem.
When we want others' approval so bad, we become anxious when thinking about losing it. This fear becomes a discouraging spiral.
Fear of what you think --> Running from opportunities & ruin my life --> Regret & feel more discouraged
And so, to combat this, we need encouragement to take even the smallest step to break that. Ultimately, I'm trying to create a success spiral.
Take a small step --> Celebrate / track your win / see growth --> Get encouraged to take a bigger step
Little by little, this rewires us to let go of people's approval, build confidence and live more fulfilling lives.
Nothing is perfect, but sometimes simplicity can lead us to believe that it doesn't address a complex root.

This is nonsense. I’ve had to deal with bills coming in my name because someone got hold of my credit card and address. It’s absolutely stressful and will make you feel helpless. What about people denied insurance because of their Amazon purchases? People with bad mental health being harassed because their data leaked? Doxxing, iCloud hack photo leaks, people affected by leaks of key government IDs, etc.; how are you…
>I’ve had to deal with bills coming in my name because someone got hold of my credit card and address. If you can't distinguish between stolen credit card and whatever mental things this app is tracking, what can I say?

Also please don't hide the iOS button from me when I'm on Android :) I had to double check from desktop if iOS was available before sending to a friend.
That’s a great idea. Glad you like it! You can actually export your diary on the profile page and it will give you a tree of mp3 and txt entries along with a nice pdf. Hopefully this will be enough for you to work with obsidian.
Any ideas how to fix this?
