Habit-chi
Your virtual pet runs away if you break your habits
What it does
Habit-chi turns habit tracking into a pet-raising game. Complete your daily habits and your animated pet grows happier, eventually evolving into new forms. Skip them, and affection drops. Let it hit zero — your pet actually runs away. What makes it different: - Animated characters that actually move (not static images) - 20+ unique pets to collect and raise - Earn badges for streaks and milestones - Fully offline, no account required - Available in 22 languages

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
