Good luck with the goals! And I would personally only add the comments as that's something you can influence and the replies not so much. But that's just my opinion :)
It's nice that both the goals seemed to be at the same level, which means usually someone replies when you comment and vice versa. But as it's not something you can control, I'd leave out that extra administration :)
Nice hive goal, I'm barely at 2k lol .. that's still very far away for me.
I ditched my spreadsheet after 6 weeks, it was too much headache to fill it in and then also fill in the table in my post, too much work so I now only fill in the table for my weekly post instead.
and a !1UP for you :)
Yes, I remarked replies is something I cannot control. Initially I thought they measured my replies to comments people made on my post, but it makes sense that it measure other people's replies to me. I left it as a goal, even though it's more to see how the two evolve going forward since they are close now.
I find it easier to fill in a spreadsheet than to fill in a table in markdown. But maybe I'm wrong. Plus, I keep the historical data on the spreadsheet.
If you have a great spreadsheet that's a great approach, I actually use them for many things that are work-related as well as private stuff. But my goals sheet sucked, I tried to adjust it a few times and now I was so fed up with the extra work that I simplified it. BUT I will start taking notes about the monthly progress for later purposes in case I want to find that back. Just not the weekly ones.
I started using the table in Leofinance as it looks clean IMO, I would not really use it for a lot of other things though, as it's a bit daunting indeed.
I actually seem to use a spreadsheet a little more complicated than many who do these weekly posts use, but it takes more work to keep it up to date every week.
At least it's all clear with a sheet :) Great insights on where you're at!
