Loop Habits
January 14, 2025•149 words
I rediscovered the Loop Habits app, I think for the third time. I think I abandoned it previously because I set the barrier too high: too many items with too high frequencies.
I rebooted the usage of this app with only 5 items and with a reasonable frequency.
Because, I do like the application: it's open source, straight forward, privacy friendly, no bells and whistles.
Also it has a nice mathematical feature by calculating the score for each habit, using an exponential moving average. It has nice properties that it takes a long time to reach a 100% score, but it's still responsive when you don't get around doing the habit for a little while. In other words, it recovers quickly whenever you continue doing the habit.
So, one of my habits is to do some writing. So that's what I'm going to do now, to tick this box.
