streaks are the worst thing to happen to language learning, change my mind
Hot take but i'll die on this hill. Streaks have made language learning less about being able to learn a foreign language and more about not breaking the streak lol. i studied spanish for 100 days straight, and the main skill i actually built was... remembering to not let the number go to zero.
You do the tiny 2-min lesson to keep the flame alive, feel productive, and log off. 400 days of the illusion of progress. meanwhile someone who studied inconsistently for a month but actually SPOKE to people ran circles around me.
has a streak ever made anyone fluent?
