Is there any interest in this idea?
Hi IH community,
I was interested in seeing if I could create good in this world by performing random small acts of kindness each day. I have a feeling that doing so will naturally create habits, improve my mood and overall outlook on life, etc.
Not sure if this is something that would resonate with others or even monetizable, but I thought IH would be a great place to get feedback on how to get going.

The idea of having people share acts of kindness is not a new idea. Some of them even became successful.
I believe that your intention is very good, but you need to find a way to attract users, motivate them, keep them accountable, etc.
If you can even convince me to do one act if kindness a day, I wouldn't do it via an app. I would use Google Sheet or Google Docs to log them for myself.
How can you motivate someone like me to use your website? What problem are you solving that I can't solve for myself?
Your heart is in the right place, now you need to get your mind there too. try to solve a problem that people really have, but even that's not enough. If People haven't looked for a solution for that problem for themselves, they likely won't use yours either.
Solve a problem that people have and who haven't been able to find a solution for.
Hope this helps!
I think this has legs and reminds me of another project I saw that asked people to commit to a goal and put their money where there mouth is. You had to commit a particular amount of money to give to a friend if you failed to meet your goal. Money was held in escrow.
It was moving 100s of Ks every month (or year).
I don’t remember the name, but will try to find it and will post it here if found
