In another news, I intend to uninstall duolingo effective immediately and actually in an effort to support human-first businesses and enroll into a real language course class where I get to talk to real human beings with same goal and have actual exams and people trained in teaching particular language.

For me, Duolingo(uber for Anki flash cards of preliminary words for a 3 day tourist in a new country) was always an odd product. It is very popular among people because they can immediately learn how to say hi/hello, thanks, please in new language but after that, it is akin to learning to swim by reading different tips and tricks, without actually ever touching water or doing the act.
