Frequently asked questions
What is a Wubbin?
Wubbin is my little dustbunny friend. They are often forgotten about, so wubbin.com is here to help me (and you!) remember those little things we often forget and to celebrate with you.
Why did you build this?
I think the world needs more things that we all can participate in together. Little things that bring a little joy or do some good, and that we can talk about and share with.
Does AI generate this?
Nope. I come up with all of the tasks. But you should know that I do use AI to help me code faster, and I'm not an artist, so I've used AI to help me illustrate Wubbin. If you are an artist that wants to help out, I'd love to get a human doing it! But, I have no revenue model now, so I can't pay for it (at least not yet.)
How do you make money?
Er, at the moment I don't. We'll see how it goes. The servers aren't too expensive yet. When they start to be, I'll have to do something.
What if I can't do something?
That's ok. While I try to make the tasks doable by anyone, not everyone can do everything. You can't clean out your glovebox if you don't have a car. Feel free to sub something similar in. Or just skip the day. Ending your streak isn't a disaster.
I did the thing, but I forgot to log it!
No worries. We give you a day to log after the fact so you don't break your streak. The log entry will show as logged the next day.
What if someone in my family did the thing already?
Woot. If it's been done, mark it done. I'm sure there are things that you might do more often than your other family member. Credit all around. This is about togetherness after all.
What if I just did the thing recently, but not today?
Congrats! You invented time travel! Just mark it done today since we haven't figured out how to do that yet.
Are you selling my data?
No. The only thing we get is your email address, and then we keep your Wubbin history so you can share or look back on what you've done.
Will anyone else see my photos?
Photos are private to your account at this point and the way we use them right now is for you to remember what you did. We may, in the future, allow you to opt in to sharing the photo if you share your daily wubbin anywhere. But I haven't built that yet.
Can you make wubbin.com do...
Probably. Send me what you'd like, and I'll look into it.
Can I add my own tasks?
No, wubbin is about doing a little thing together. However... if there is a task you'd like to see, send it my way! The tasks we publish need to be free (or nearly free), have a positive impact, and generally accessible.
