Has the "daily streak" gamification broken how we track our lives?

Hey everyone,

As builders, we are obsessed with tracking things daily. MRR, commits, workouts, Inbox Zero. Because of this, almost every productivity app on the market is optimized for "streaks."

It calculates your rhythm, predicts your next due date, and lets you log everything instantly from interactive widgets. No subscriptions, no tracking, just peace of mind.

We are obsessed with "daily streaks". But how do you track the irregular maintenance of life?

As builders, we love tracking daily metrics: MRR, GitHub commits, daily workouts, Inbox Zero. Standard habit trackers are incredibly optimized for this gamification.

But lately, I've realized my "mental RAM" gets completely eaten up by the irregular tasks. The stuff you only need to do every few weeks or months:

  • Changing the AC filter

  • Watering specific houseplants

  • Following up with that one dormant enterprise lead

  • Taking as-needed medication

  • Taking a full day away from the screen
