Duolingo keeps doing mass layoffs, so the bird is overworked. You can help him out by switching to a language learning app that actually helps you learn a language instead of endlessly throwing flash cards at you without teaching you anything! Win win.
I’ve been working on my Spanish with practice from some of my coworkers and patients. So far Duolingo’s “flash cards” have actually been pretty helpful, but I grant that some of the actual "instruction"isn’t there. I went from really rudimentary Spanish to being able to conduct a patient evaluation in Spanish as long as it’s straight forward.
Everyone shits on Duo but I’ve found it to be a really helpful practice tool myself.

Anything is better than nothing. This is true. But that doesn’t mean you aren’t wasting your time on something that does the bare minimum.
But I like to see my streak go up🚀🚀🚀
