I'm not sure if it's a mobile site issue, but on iPad, I just get a constant typing animation of what someone is thankful for. I have no idea what this does. Maybe this animation culminates in something, but whatever it is, it takes too long to get to the point. I got bored and left. Your Show HN title alone did much more to interest me than this landing page. I want to like this, but I don't know what this is.

hey! Creator of gratefulness here! haha sorry about the glitch. not sure what's going on. But as to what this whole gratitude thing is: I initially put this together for my little cousin who's been having a really rough go of it over the past few years. We'd been talking about how to stay mindful of the things we're grateful for. I offered up the idea of a gratitude journal but that didn't stick. So I told him I'd put together a quick app that would text him every morning. He could respond to the text and I'd store it (privately!) for him. At the end of the week, I'd email him a recap of that weeks gratitude comments. That worked much better for him! I sent it out to family and friends and over the past 5 weeks or so, we've been getting some positive responses. In short, it's just a simple gratitude journal to help stay grateful!
