Number6 :syncthing:The good news is that you can learn a language in only 5 minutes a day with <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a> The bad news is that it will take about 40 years.

mborusIf you’re tired of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#duolingo</a>, why not learn by trying to understand a web comic every day (like <a href="https://mastodon.social/@timoneda" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@timoneda</a> for 🇪🇸)? You get exposure to a lot of vocabulary and having to work hard for the joke makes it so much more fun when you finally get it.

Zackary GonczWhy Duolingo Stinks The gamification of the app comes at the expense of learning, because the goal of the app isn't to maximize learning, but engagement. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#language</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#education</a> <a href="https://medium.com/@zag102/duolingo-stinks-gamification-is-a-double-edged-sword-2223d19142c0" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://medium.com/@zag102/duolingo-stinks-gamification-is-a-double-edged-sword-2223d19142c0</a>

JohanSAfter finishing the Swedish course on <a href="https://mendeddrum.org/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a>, I'm now exploring Scottish <a href="https://mendeddrum.org/tags/Gaelic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gaelic</a>. No, I'm also not sure why, but it's interesting. Still waiting for Duo to add <a href="https://mendeddrum.org/tags/Icelandic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Icelandic</a>...

teufel100😈Scheinbar hat der andere gerade genug gelernt. Das ist gut, dann kann ich jetzt auch erst mal aufhören. Ich musste ja den Rückstand, den ich mir gestern eingehandelt hatte, ausgleichen und jetzt sind wir fast gleich, dann kann es morgen noch spannend werden ;) <a href="https://social.guckt.info/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a>

Gonçalo RibeiroFinished <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/WaniKani" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaniKani</a> level 24.I'm making an effort to study/practice grammar every day and go through <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Genki" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Genki</a>. This week's been the best in a long time.I'm also about to drop <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a>. It never brought me much value, and I'm feeling it's just wasted time, even if only ~5 minutes a day (can invest those is grammar). It's a chore. Today I jumped to the end of a section and tried a lesson in the new section. It was more interesting in terms of grammar. I'll probably do a few more jumps to test myself sometimes, but I'll not try to keep a streak any longer.

Eric True (f.k.a. spazquest)I’m still impressed that the dorky little skits in <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a> manage to be funny as hell when you have to puzzle them out. “This isn’t the airport, it’s the library!

Gos Salsitxa"<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Duolingo</a> made language-learning fun." Really, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bryanjohnson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bryanjohnson</a>? Of all the companies in the world that achieved something cool, you choose Duolingo? Yeah they made it fun, but also useless. They used unpaid volunteer work to create their materials. They call the app "free" and force you to watch ads every minute. And they put AI over humans. Awesome example. Way to go. I love you Bryan, but please do your research. <a href="http://youtube.com/post/UgkxTCYY2nzaR1ttaAxAULN_N9xRrz1v2t5n?feature=shared" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">http://youtube.com/post/UgkxTCYY2nzaR1ttaAxAULN_N9xRrz1v2t5n?feature=shared</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/languagelearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#languagelearning</a>

GusI began studying Czech because Tandem gave me the way in. It inspired me.

Martin Owens :inkscape:Duolingo is getting weirder and weirder since they went all in on <a href="https://floss.social/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ai</a> I stopped doing most of the lessons and just did a word a day as a keepie-up. But, er.Araña means chandelier? Tea translated to merianda instead of té, this actually makes sense to me as a northern brit, but who else is going to think tea means snack time?Weird words with weird uses and not in a fun way, in an ai slop kinda way.<a href="https://floss.social/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#duolingo</a>
