I think it could be gamed, and quickly derail into influencer territory.

What makes progress reports useful and career-helping are valuable notes, not game-like achievements. Those are hard to craft, and often not digestable to a larger audience.

I'll think the next steps for you. If things continue the way they are, it's likely someone will try to skip the influencer stuff and create automated systems that evaluate whether someone is really making progress on something novel or not. That sort of thing could change the way we look at developer presence.

In that world, you want to cultivate a smaller audience that can understand your notes, build upon them, and resonate value within that smaller audience. I'm saying a smaller audience because the larger it is, the higher the chances of it derailing.
