I think it's a great model to decrease streak by 1 every day we missed something. Personally, I struggle to always post before midnight and I lost my streak many times, leading to a point of apathy towards streaks.
On top of it, I've also seen many people just hacking the streaks by just posting random updates like "Have breakfast," which I don't think is truthful towards posting an actual "Work In Progress" update. This caused further apathy.
Side note: Maybe you can use AI to detect if the post is actually about a Project or some random update.
Last point, as humans we are motivated by hope; when I see some streaks like that of @levelsio I lose all hope because I'll never be able to get the top position. Even if I get to 1000 days, Peter will be at 2000 days LOL
