Forcing non-paying users to get Hearts to continue the half baked lessons was bad enough, but now with Super you can't even access the video calling feature?

This service has long been a cash-grab, but now it's predatory pricing tiers too...

Hitting the day streak of the year we’re in feels worth sharing for me.

And yes, I’ve actually been learning with Duolingo, along with some other language apps, and speaking with people in the languages I’m learning, particularly Spanish.

Does someone else have the feeling like Duolingo sometimes updates the course-order and while you get newly sorted in there is some surprise new vocabulary you did not learn before? I am doing Duo for a year and a half, in this time they did some major changes in their Design and learning scheme. So maybe I am just bad at Vocabulary but this really stuck out to me.

So it's been a while now since the leaderboard's challenge is Match Madness every day except on Saturday, when it's the Ramp Up.

I don't know if it's just me but that's getting me pretty disengaged. I quickly hit my limit on the Match Madness, then it has no interest to me.

Previously, I would use these challenges on a daily basis, as a way to review past lessons. Damned, I would use them over and over to score high in the leaderboard too.

Now I've completely lost interest in the leaderboard, but worse: I'm wondering if I'm moving back by lack of practice on past lessons vocabulary and grammar.

I don't feel like going through some past lessons and pick some randomly. How do you make sure you do pick randomly?

Am I the only one who thinks that "all Match Madness" thing is a regression?

So here's how to calculate it:

220 - days from start to current day of duolingo streak

167 - duolingo streak on the website / app

220 - 167 = 53

53 is how many days i have frozen my duolingo streak...

How about yours? I am curious

No button to continue 😟

I have found that I can get my 70 Lingots for my 700 day streak if I go to my https://www.duome/{user}/progress page once per week.

Mine is "bewölkt," which means "cloudy" in German. It's just a lot of fun to say!

So I've been using Duolingo long enough that it's become background noise: think I'm on a 780-some streak at this point.

I'm essentially only dropping by daily to do one lesson and maintain the streak, as opposed to actually wanting to learn something new. It's probably not helped by the new unit structure constantly repeating things that have just been covered; I think this is the fourth time I've worked through the weekdays in Hindi...

Which is all to ask: for those lemmites (lemmings?) who are on a long streak, how do you get the passion back?

Este vs ese is still difficult

tbh I think it's luck I got this, I finished unit 1 of Spanish (I've half efforted it) and that took a while. Just started esperanto.

Currently learning some Spanish.
