I didn’t mean to insult anyone.
The main inyan of daf yomi, in my humble opinion, is that there is the achdus of klal yisroel learning the same thing on the same day. I am just speaking from my personal experience- I felt that in 45 minutes, I didn’t really make a kinyan b’torah at the end of it all. What I do now, because this works better for me, is in a week’s time, I learn 2-3 blatt gemara with Rashi, Tosafos, Rambam, and now, the “iyun kal” perush of Shas Illuminated.
You should do whatever floats your boat. A person should learn what interests him.
Please do not allow me to discourage you. Continue shteiging and being moser nefesh for the sake of limud hatorah.
