On: End-of-life dates

[badrabbit]

That name. I clicked thinking it was about people in a hospice dating. Glad it's nothing so morbid.

[Vinnl → badrabbit]

Me too, mostly because it's literally one of the projects on my project idea list. I wouldn't call that morbid though; I think it'd be beautiful to support terminally ill people finding love with less worry about leaving the other party behind.

[jaynetics → badrabbit]

I expected this to be a form where I could put in some personal data and it would calculate the date of my death. I'm slightly disappointed.

[bko → badrabbit]

I thought it was dates in which people prophesized end of the world, including dates of actual end of world (e.g. heat death of universe)

[jraph → bko]

Me too.

Reading other comments, it appears once again that it's unfortunate that date designates both a reference to a particular day, and a romantic encounter.

[code_duck → badrabbit]

EOLdates may have been a more easily interpreted name to tech people.

[captn3m0 → badrabbit]

I occasionally see some hospice queries leading to the website in search console. I hadn’t considered the other meanings till I noticed these in the reports.
