Bennolius 😷⚡<p>This was a rather silly exchange.

Bennolius 😷⚡<p>Looks like I'm done with the B1 <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/French" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>French</span></a> course on <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/Busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Busuu</span></a>, and am now starting the B2 one. This doesn't seem remotely plausible, but I guess I'll keep going 🤷‍♂️<br><a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/LanguageLearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageLearning</span></a></p>

Senioradmin<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://troet.cafe/@silaAivlis" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>silaAivlis</span></a></span> <br>Ich habe beide genutzt, <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>duolingo</span></a> wiederholt sehr viel, aber da musste ich zu viel sinnfreies übersetzen und am Ende war mit der Gamingfaktor und das Konkurrenzdenken zu hoch.</p><p>Letzteres gibt es auch bei <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Busuu</span></a>, aber nicht ganz so krass. Bei Busuu war mir das Tempo am Ende zu hoch, das gelernte war noch nicht wirklich vertieft, da wird<br>man schon gedrängt weiter zu machen.</p><p>Am meisten haben mich die VHS-Kurse weiter gebracht und der Aufenthalt von 1 Monat in Spanien.</p>
Sílvia da Silva<p>Spanisch lernen auf <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>duolingo</span></a> Den Satz kann ich wohl nie ohne zu stolpern übersetzen. Ya que le caemos bien a él, él nos cae bien. Da er uns mag, mögen wir ihn. Aber brauch ich auch nicht, weil ich nicht so funktioniere und den wohl auch nie benötige. Ich habe jetzt schon öfter gelesen, das <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>busuu</span></a> besser wäre. Hat da jemand von Euch Erfahrung damit? Ich habe übrigens heute einen 600-tägigen Streak, aber nichts geschenkt bekommen. Ich find es eine Abzockerapp mit viel zu viel KI.</p>
Bennolius 😷⚡<p>Well, that's my last day on <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Duolingo</span></a>. I would have quit earlier but I figured I'd hit this milestone first. From now on it's just reading, podcasts, YouTube, and other apps - <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/Busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Busuu</span></a> for example. And continuing to build my own system.</p>
Bennolius 😷⚡<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://g0v.social/@dale" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>dale</span></a></span> I've been doing the <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/French" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>French</span></a> course on <a href="https://polyglot.city/tags/Busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Busuu</span></a>. Seems pretty good so far. Also, although I'm not doing the Duolingo course, their French podcast is good - interesting stories told at a reasonable pace (though I'd prefer it if it didn't jump back to English every few sentences).<br>I can also recommend Easy French (YouTube + podcast), although obviously it's not a course in an app. Another podcast is Coffee Break French, although it's a bit touristy for me.</p>
Nave :ms_furry_pride:<p>Since that <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Duolingo</span></a> started using AI to steal content from the community and laying off their employees due to this, I canceled my subscription with them and stopped using the app.</p><p>I came across <a href="https://meow.social/tags/Busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Busuu</span></a>, and they do offer a similar experience as Duolingo, what sold me on it is the “Community” tab - you as a native speaker of your language can offer feedback to those who are learning your language. (See picture below for an example).</p><p>Only downsides are if you had a streak, you’ll have to start over and you’ll have to find out where you are in their course, and you lose the friends you had on DL. But they have actual videos of people speaking, which helps me as a HoH/deaf learner to lipread a bit!</p><p>Also, they offer 30-day free trial of their premium (ad-free) for every friend I invite, up to an year’s worth (and the friend gets 30 days too). So… if you’re interested… *cough* pls click on this link :3 *cough* <a href="https://app.busuu.com/EqmJzGg9XQWCUJAj6" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">app.busuu.com/EqmJzGg9XQWCUJAj</span><span class="invisible">6</span></a></p><p>(I’m not a spokesperson or affiliated with Busuu in any way - just want to learn Spanish and support folks along the way)</p><p>P.S. I used my fursona’s name and picture for my profile, and I want more <a href="https://meow.social/tags/furry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>furry</span></a> friends on here :3</p>
Jan ☕🎼🎹☁️🏋️‍♂️<p>Well, I <a href="https://fedi.kcore.org/tags/duolingo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>duolingo</span></a>, I already didn't like you equating all Spanish to Latin American (pronunciation and word use is quite different), I wasn't a fan of your anime style, and now you're firing staff to replace them with "AI"? </p><p>That's going to improve the quality, I see.</p><p>I'll stick with <a href="https://fedi.kcore.org/tags/busuu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>busuu</span></a>...</p>
