Show HN: Sober not Sorry – free iOS tracker to help you quit bad habits

(sobernotsorry.app)

I made Sober not Sorry, a clean and simple iOS tracker to help quit bad habits — alcohol, smoking, or anything else. Open it → log your start date → it tracks your streak. No ads, no sign-up, no subscriptions. I built it because most “sober” apps felt cluttered or too motivational. This one just quietly tracks progress and stays out of the way. Would love feedback — especially from people who use streak or sobriety trackers.

Just fyi - this app is from russia.

And there are other free apps that do the same.

Thanks for the note! The app is made with care for people everywhere, regardless of where it’s built. And yes — there are other apps out there, but I wanted to create something simple, ad-free, and focused purely on supporting your journey.

Guilt by association is a pretty weak argument, you don't get to choose where you are born.

Nothing wrong with feeling a bit guilty about it though. As I understand, most of you don't.

Nothing to do with guilt.

The fact is if you give that app attention and users it will be montetized at some point, capital from around the world will flow, and taxes will be paid on it in russia, and more missiles will be built.

You get to choose whether you’re complacent and complicit, however. Russia could not have invaded Ukraine without a supportive populace. So no, sorry; no Russian citizen gets a "I don’t care about politics" free pass, just as the Germans didn’t get one after WW2.

Appreciate your point but I am sure you can relate to my concern that there is a good chance you will monetize it, and pay taxes that will be used to build missiles.

So 10 mil Ukrainians were forced out of the country but russians can't leave on their own?

Yeah they can.

They chose to stay and pay for the war with their taxes.

but they have families etc etc everyone does, and they still were forced to leave and manage to build a life or rebuild from scratch. So yeah you can leave with your family.

And yeah you are complicit if you don't do anything against. There is also a way even donating to Ukraine from inside russia.

Stop defending the complicit ones, the math is very simple.

More opposition sent to Siberian gulags to “disappear”

By your standard, those Ukrainians are complicit in the crimes of neo-Nazi groups inspired by Bandera who engaged in ethnic cleansing over the past decade.

I don’t personally view things that way — but I think it’s very interesting in how you selectively apply guilt by association.

Russians ALL contribute by taxes so in this case all of them are complicit.

In your fictional example very few are.

And here was no "ethnic cleansing" in any way, not sure what propaganda you are into. Sounds russian.

You're going to be really upset when you find out that you're posting this comment on a website created in the country that, since WW2, has invaded or militarily attacked the Dominican Republic, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Grenada, Panama, Iraq, Somalia, Serbia, Haiti, and Afghanistan.

which country do you propose Russians ought to move to such that they are no longer complicit with some other government's malfeasance? Russia is not the only country that under your logic you might say this about it's residents.

Doesn’t matter. Obviously you can always find some ties etc but reasonably just leaving russia and condemning their actions would be good enough.

But you can’t put zero effort in and claim Oh i am a victim here.

Seriously, for your own mental well being, drop this crusade on the thread and go touch some grass.

It’s not guilt by association, it’s jurisdiction. Nobody cares if an ethnic Russian emigrant to France makes an app.
