A micro-tipping experiment in digital space. You read a single line of "wisdom of the day" and if it resonates you can tip as a gesture of emotional gratitude. No signups. No ads. One click and a warm thank you. Results will be published openly via the OSF.
Hey everyone, I’m Sven – the creator of WarmThankYou.
This project is deeply personal. I wanted to explore what happens when we strip everything down no features, no onboarding, no gamification, just offer a simple moment of emotional connection. Now it's live, running and already backed by real people who believed in it.
It’s one line of text. One chance to say: "That meant something to me."
This is not about money, if you feel something, you can tip. That's it.
And yes all tips go into keeping this experiment alive.
The real goal? To understand how people value emotion in digital space. The data will be shared openly as part of our OSF research (https://osf.io/jrsb3/. Identifier: DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/JRSB3).
Would love your thoughts is this insane, interesting, both? I’m here all day.

This is so cool! I love the simplicity – truely stripping things back to the core emotional connection is kinda genius imo. Just one line to express gratitude? That’s a powerful statement, and I'm fascinated by the research angle. What kind of data are you hoping to glean from this, beyond just the volume of messages?
