I really love the convenience of DuoLingo, but I hate the gamification aspects. I wish we could choose between having it nag us about streaks and getting a summary of total hours this week, or this month, or this year.
I truly don't care about the "streaks", and even if I did I wouldn't agree with its measure of my streaks, anyway, as I measure a "day" as that time between when I wake and when I sleep. My normal time to do a duolingo lesson is just after I crawl into bed and as my dawnlight is bringing on dusk. Therefore my streaks count only the number of days in a row that I happened to go to bed on the same side of midnight.
