Reddit now tracks how many consecutive days you have posted or even just upvoted someone. I’m closing in on the 400 day badge with 20 days to go. The streak counter has only been active for about 3 years so there are only 5,148 people in the 1000 day category. There are 2.7 million who have achieved the 365 day badge like me. To see your numbers view your profile and select “view all” under achievements. ---

> [@robby](#): > > Summary I have: > **Summary** > > A SDMB ‘Devotee’ badge, which is for visiting the SDMB _365_ consecutive days. Which surprised me, since I’m most often active during the week, and mostly stay offline (I thought) on the weekends. I guess I must still at least glance at the SDMB on weekends, though. > > I think I need to get out more, or get more hobbies 😊 ---

I like Reddit but I always have trouble posting there. For some reason or another I always get a message back that it was formatted wrong or I broke some other posting rule. It’s extremely annoying and I honestly try my best to comply with the sub rules. ---

I just checked and I am at 890. I’m surprised that I’m not one of the people at 1000. What happened 891 days ago that caused me to miss a day? ---

I have 894 days. I also have 19 years. Every so often a random person will reply to one of my comments with “19 YEARS?!?!” ---

Well, now you’ve got me wondering what happened to me 881 days ago. I’m gonna go down that rabbit hole. Try to see what happened on that day. ---

I READ reddit, but I don’t WRITE on reddit … so - no reason to log in (which I do maybe 1-2 times per year) ---

I don’t think the streak is for writing. It also carries for upvotes and downvotes. IIRC I remember seeing the streak counter when I like something just after midnight. ---

ok - just to make things more clear: you don’t need to log-in to read reddit … and I have a very strict cookie/ad-block regime … so reddit wouldn’t be able to streak/track me (which is one of the reasons for my strict regime - the other just being old, grumpy and slightly paranoid ;o) ). ---

Fellow 19-year crusty veteran, but it says my streak is only 873 days. I wonder what I was doing at the end of May in 2024 that caused me to not even upvote anything. ---
