Hey @yannschaub, thank you!
That's great question and I was thinking about how to solve this as well.
I didn't want to burn everyone with streaks too much. So I created "score" system. It calculates not only based on current streak but on the overall activity and on the past streaks as well. So all your activity counts.
I also faced the problem with time zones. What time should I update the streaks if I don't have time zones? So I created a little progress bar on the top of the website. At least you can see when the day ends and you should post before it to maintain the streak.
In the future I'm also planning to add email reminders. In my case it's easier because it's custom platform.
Hey everyone! π
I am happy to launch and share Learning Story with everyone! π
It's a community of people who learn in public.
I am a huge fan of the idea of learning in public. I think it helps you with accountability, allows you to find like-minded people, and expand your network.
And most importantly, it allows you to keep a diary of your progress so you can review the learnings at any time and help it stick.
Here are the main features:
βοΈ Share what you learned:
On the day you learned something new you can share this in the public feed.
π Discuss with others:
Each post can start the discussion. Other people can share their thoughts or give you some advice or simply encourage you to keep going! We have a notification system so you'll never miss a comment.
π₯ Leaderboard and stats:
To help you stay accountable we have different stats and a leaderboard to compete with other users. We calculate your activity score based on your streaks and total days of activity.
β Goals:
To help you track all your learning goals and to-dos. Each goal you complete gets shared to the Feed and contributes to your activity!
π The platform is currently 100% free.
π If you have any feedback or feature requests I would love to hear from you.
π I hope our community will help you learn a lot of new exciting things and find people to discuss them with.
Awesome! Congrats @guar47 !
It already proved that I'm motivated to learn every day not to loose the streak π
Hope Learning Story will help many people learn better π
Yay! Congrats, @guar47 I've been using Learning Story, I use it at the end of the day to share I've have learned and see what other people are learning as well. It's nice to see progress being made.
