    I’ve leaned on the gamification/completionist element in the past and same, when they updated I felt obliged to go back and clear all the levels again.

    I wasn’t too happy with my relationship to / reliance on the gamification. Works well when it does work, is really demotivating when it doesn’t.

      Yeah I just hit diamond and I suddenly went from being really excited to look at the leaderboard to absolutely dreading it. Before diamond I was consistently in the top 3-5 every week, now I’m like grinding lessons just to not drop down. It’s good though because it does make me want to learn more.
