Streaks are one of the most potent growth hacks. They’ll probably be part of an accomplishment system, another unholy beast of addictive user retention. This will almost certainly juice the DAU numbers. This will not improve the discourse. “Do I feel the urge to say a thing strongly enough to post it for its own sake?” This is a healthy filter. Endorphin gambling with tips, simulated accomplishments, etc disrupt the natural flow of conversation. Prioritizing the Q in QDAU is how Dan got us all here in the first place. It’s too early to start leaning toward the DAU side. Streaks implicitly asks the s tier content fountains at the heart of this app to give even more of themselves to the network. Here’s a falsifiable prediction: After an initial surge, most top users will burn out on streaks, it will become the near exclusive province of low effort posters, overall content quality will drop, DAU will drop, & Dan in his godlike product wisdom will jack the feature out. Love and respect to Dan & V

The male urge to increase the quantity of quality. My prediction would also be that streaks do not increase quality content overall. At some point people start reaching and just go through the motions to maintain a streak.
