I want weekends off for certain goals but I don’t use the feature because I don’t have a premium account[1]. I also want certain weekdays off for other goals but the weekends off feature isn’t configurable or very generalizable. I wrote Beelint for myself which is fully configurable and also examines your Google Calendar to find incompatible days ([Beelint: Another take on weekends-off & vacations](https://forum.beeminder.com/t/beelint-another-take-on-weekends-off-vacations/1858)). [1] The #1 thing that would get me to buy premium is autoratchet improvements, namely I want records of when autoratcheting happens and I want IFTTT triggers to fire when autoratcheting happens. I also want autoratchet to work with weekends off. TL;DR if weekends off were free I would use it as-is, but if I had premium I would actually rather use autoratchet since I’m forced to choose between them. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.beeminder.com/t/what-are-the-technical-reasons-for-the-incompatibility-between-autoratcheting-and-weekends-off/5213)._
