This is quite good. Maybe not the direction you're thinking of taking this, but it would be nice to have some optional social features; e.g. community writing prompts, commenting, etc. I used to use a site that would give you a 5 minute writing prompt and then allowed other users to read and comment on the daily entries. It was really fun and encouraging! I'd love to have an "HN Daily Writers" group to practice with.

Incidentally, it would also make the subscription a much more compelling value proposition.

I want writing streak to be a simple tool that does one thing very well, so I tried to avoid adding a lot of extra functionality.

I have built a project that I think you might find interesting: https://fictionhub.io/

It's a writing community where you can post stories, share and receive feedback, etc.

The idea of making it centered specifically around the daily writing exercises, prompts, etc is interesting. I might be able to use the fiction hub platform to make something like that, I'll need to think about it.
