Show HN: Pfff – Turn daily frustrations into XP with witty AI responses

https://pfff.me
2•killersheep•1d ago
I built Pfff!!! as a side project to vent daily frustrations in a fun, positive way. My partner and sister complain a lot about little things (traffic, work, life annoyances), and I love step-counter apps that make walking addictive with streaks and XP. So I combined the two:an app where you rant freely, earn XP, level up, and get instant AI replies in different tones (empathetic, cynical, sarcastic, humorous).Free:3 rants per day Premium: unlimited + more tones

It was also a great learning exercise: AI integration, text/audio processing, payments (Stripe), DB, etc.Try it out and let me know what you think – brutal feedback welcome!https://pfff.me(Already shared on Indie Hackers: https://www.indiehackers.com/post/launching-pfff-gamified-ve... )

Quick demo of how it works:

1. You rant about something annoying (e.g., "Traffic was hell today") 2. Pfff!!! gives you XP and levels you up 3. Instant AI reply in your chosen tone (here: cynical mode)

Tried it with my own daily frustration (HN karma system ) – got a pretty spot-on sarcastic reply.

Feedback very welcome – especially on the tones, gamification, or missing features!
