My wife needed a cycle tracker. Everything out there was either Flo (which got sued twice for sharing health data) or an abandoned GitHub project. So I built Ovumcy. Single Go binary, SQLite, Docker-ready. No analytics, no third-party APIs, no cloud. Your data stays on your server. Features: period tracking, symptom logging, predictions (ovulation, fertile window), statistics, CSV/JSON export, dark mode, Russian and English. Just pushed v0.2.5. Looking for feedback from real users.

A lot of cycle trackers right now sell that data and there is some concern it could be used to find women who have miscarried and charge them with a crime.

Something like your idea is safer for women to use.

How can that even be a thing? Miscarriages happen all the time

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 14 points 4 months ago

Well a miscarriage is basically an abortion and an abortion is basically a murder.

/s, to be clear, but some people will say that sincerely and in some parts of the world they get to write the law.

Yeah they have tried to prosecute women for miscarriages. Basically saying women cause them on purpose.

The right wing conservatives often have these weird paradoxical beliefs. Like Mexicans are lazy but also stealing everyone's jobs.

They believe women are designed to be baby incubators and are natural caregivers, but we are also naturally baby killers and have to be watched and kept from killing all the babies.

It's ridiculous.
