Deleted Duolingo. The streak was stressing me more than teaching me

Not hating on anyone who loves it. But the little fire icon turned into homework guilt for me, and I noticed I was tapping just to not lose a number — not to actually understand anything. Switched to an hour of real input a day. No streak, no guilt. If I miss a day, I miss a day. The hours still add up. Anyone else feel lighter after dropping the streak?
