- notrealyme123 1y agoSomeone watched to much Rick and Morty. Self destructing behaviour and hurting everyone you love are imo not a thing to be snarky about.
- cheschire 1y agoThose are your morals, not everyone’s morals. That’s GP’s point.
- badgersnake 1y agoThat’s a pretty extreme position. Not everyone having a drink is engaging in those things.
- cinntaile 1y agoThe app is clearly focused on breaking an addiction.
- GuB-42 1y agoIf you can track "anything else", I guess you can track your drinking streak, your days without exercising, how long you spent without calling your mom, or whatever "good habit" you want to quit. I don't think that's what most people are looking for though.
- badgersnake 1y agoThere are definitely apps to track your drinking, although mainly with the intent of encouraging moderation. Not everyone wants to stop drinking entirely, just drink a bit less.
- dpbriggs 1y agoWhen someone is reaching for an app like this it's a bad habit.
- weego 1y agoPerhaps reflect on how lucky you are that you don't have any understanding or empathy for why some people might really need an app like this
- zmgsabst 1y agoThis comment isn’t even technically correct — OP frames it as quitting bad habits and then suggests common problems people have, eg people who want to quit drinking or smoking habits that negatively impact their lives. You then parsed that uncharitably (by ignoring context) to make a snarky remark. Edgy midwit nihilism is so blasé.
