I finally killed my favorite fern by overwatering it

Honestly, I thought I was being a good plant parent by giving my Boston fern a drink every 2 days, but last week it turned yellow and mushy. I guess I should have let the soil dry out between waterings, lesson learned. Has anyone else killed a plant by being too nice to it?

Three days is usually the sweet spot for letting that top inch dry out, too much love is a real thing with ferns.
