I totally understand your concerns - to be honest, I share that same mistrust of how things work online these days. That’s exactly why I built this to be as anonymous as possible, with no data collection at all.

You’re right that I need to be more upfront, though. I’ll take your advice and be much more precise in explaining the mechanics next time so people know exactly what they’re getting into. Really appreciate the feedback and for taking a chance on it anyway!

Thank you! Really glad it resonates with you - the AuDHD community was actually one of the main groups I had in mind while building this. The "likelihood of plans falling through" thing is so real.

The busy/available toggle is a great idea. I can see how battery level ≠ availability (you might be recharged but already committed, or drained but still down for the right person). Adding that to the roadmap! Let me know how it works for you if you end up using it.

Good questions! And thanks for sharing your experience here. Much appreciated.

Here's how it works:

1. Offline status: Right now, friends see your last set level indefinitely. No timeout yet, but you're right that an "offline/last seen X hours ago" indicator would be useful - adding that to the list.

2. Nickname privacy: Yeah, the username is in the share link by design. The nickname is more for personalization (some people prefer going by a different name with friends) rather than privacy. Per-friend nicknames is an interesting idea though.

3.Keeping it updated: Fair concern. I'm betting people who actually need this will keep it current. But it is homework to do, for me as well. I'm thinking about the notification option, though I don't want to be too intrusive in a world of constant popup notifications. The key is finding the right balance.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown of the flow, super helpful for people deciding whether to try it. I didn't post it myself as I thought it would spoil the experience of discovering something new and fun.
