This is yet another intimidation tactic. I have a 1200 day streak on Duolingo because the owl bullies me and I am weak.
Same. I have the widget on my phone where my home screen has a little owl with motivational messages about keeping up your good learning habit. By 10PM it turns dark red and there is no more motivational message. Just an evil stare by the owl. That's usually when I get around to doing my lesson...
I love that someone decided that intimidation of its users was the best way to give the app a competitive advantage
