What HN said
What people liked
Funny and quirky
From 3 comments
I like this a lot more than I probably should. It's quirky, fun, and possibly useful.
bovermyer on HNGood job! Kinda funny!
mobattah on HNThis is funny to me. I needed that laugh. I wonder if there's something to it? Being able to complete tasks does feel good especially 6 out of 6.

Design and copy are well done
From 1 comment
I love the design of everything (web page, app screenshots, copy). I'm going to take notes for my own app. :)

Objections
iOS only; no web or Android version yet
From 4 comments
I like the concept, I'd like to try this, but I don't have an iPhone. Do you plan on creating a web/Android version?
yamrzou on HNAbsolutely! I'll just let the iOS users find all the bugs first ;)
maebert on HNThat's cool and all but what about web app or Android?
LoveMortuus on HNIn the making! I'll just let the iOS users find all the bugs first ;)

Web page uses lots of CPU and has a horizontal scrollbar in Firefox
From 1 comment
Merely having this website in the foreground uses up almost 10% of my CPU. Also, it has a horizontal scrollbar (at least in Firefox). The idea is funny, though.

Page would not load for one commenter

The page won't load for me, and I'm not sure if that's the joke.

yamrzou on HNAs simple as it is, it seems like a good candidate for a progressive web app. Then everyone can have it.

Questions
Are tasks chosen at random from a database of everyday tasks?

Alternatives named
Tab manager extensions such as OneTab and Tabler
From 2 comments
Sir, it sounds to me like you could use a tab manager extension. May I recommend https://tabler.one
natannikolic on HNOneTab is pretty decent and I think it's in a similar vein: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/onetab/
