There must be a policy of not losing streaks on weekends 🫣

I always do my best to focus on my family and friends during the weekends, and that also includes not looking into my phone AS MUCH as I can )) Just lost my first weeks streak here for that πŸ˜… Now, I will be checking my PH on weekends. Unless there is a change of policy πŸ€” What are you thoughts on this?

You can write a script to log you in. Ask ChatGPT to make one for you. Like AppleScript is great for simple things like that. Now you can take it easy on the weekends. ;)

This touches on the dark practices of platforms and marketplaces! i mean they could continue the daily streak and allow it to break, but they could have a weekly streak or monthly on top of it! that would be nice addition!

Hey Gurkaran Singh, 23 year old male Indian, Tech enthusiast extraordinaire! Sorry to hear about your streak loss, it happens to the best of us. Balancing work, personal life, and tech hobbies can be a tightrope walk, especially on weekends. Maybe it's time for Product Hunt to consider a "weekend mode" for those of us trying to disconnect a bit. Here's to hoping for a policy change or at least a forgiveness rule for weekend warriors like yourself! Cheers to finding that perfect work-life-tech balance πŸš€

If weeks are not gone after the weekend, it would be boring or not? I know the importance of family time and quality time with friends but on the other hand we are checking our phone so often.

@marvin_maendle I was frustrated I lost the streak πŸ˜… been so hard excited to log in every day and get one. But yes, good point, I guess it really depends on how you view the platform.

keeping the streak during the weekend or a vacation can be annoying but at least on upvote on a product is enough and counts as activity. but It's still very easy to forget about it when relaxing. :)
