I've just uninstalled the app and deleted the account (sadly, I have some relatives still stuck on a yearly subscription) after having used Duolingo for years (almost 2000 days streak) and finished multiple languages (English, German, Polish, Esperanto).
Duolingo was quite an innovative platform years ago, it really led me to keep learning, but now all that's gone. I managed to save every single sentence in the last language I was learning, which I can now import into Anki, so the ad bloat won't be a problem anymore.
They can push their greediness far and beyond, until the extent they find suitable, I won't be part of that.
