Security & PrivacyAttendance, not content: what the leaderboard actually ranks
The whole-life leaderboard ranks one thing: weeks with anything logged, training or habit. It never sees what you logged, because ranking content instead of attendance is how a habit tracker turns into a place people perform for.

A daily streak has no concept of a planned day off: every rest day looks identical to a missed one. Counting weeks against a target you set yourself is what lets rest be a decision instead of a risk.

DesignWhy PaceStreak's streaks count weeks, not days
A daily streak punishes rest. The streak engine counts kept weeks against a target you set, forgives bad weeks with earned freezes and a monthly repair, and stores nothing that can drift.
