Comment on Day 718 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Any game that expects regular attendance is an immediate mood killer from me.
This is my biggest issue with mobile games. Log in every day to get a gift, or keep a streak, annoys me too much so I mostly just end up deleting them.
Animal Crossing was different, I mostly played it cause I wanted to, and since whole family was playing it, it was a completely different experience.

Mobile games are the bane of my existence for purely that reason. (That and I don’t keep games in my phone because I know I’ll get distracted).
Some Social Media is the same way, which drives me crazy. It’s like they expect me to get on regularly
I remember getting a notification from one that basically said “hey. You haven’t looked at anything today” and I immediately went to settings and turned off notifications.
Ironically I found my way over here to Lemmy and get on daily for my screenshots. So… I guess I ended up doing that anyways lmao

Same here, I turn off most of the these kind of notifications.
Well, those daily check-ins are just for consuming content, turning you towards what some people call “zombie”. You are here creating content, that is much different, having a daily streak for something positive is a great way to keep the momentum going. Jerry Seinfeld’s “daily chain” strategy is one of the famous examples.
