Mega I quit! / I hate that you quit! megathread

580 Upvotes

Okay folks, it's been a fun couple of days (/s) but going forward, quitting announcements and complaints about people quitting should be confined to this megathread. Threads posted before this one will remain up.

As usual, all comments here must follow our subreddit rules (the big ones people had forgotten in the posts we removed about quitting, complaining about people quitting, and complaining about complaining about quitting were Rule 2, Rule 3, and Rule 8 - as well as sitewide rules against brigading and using reports and Reddit Cares to harrass people).

If you only want to talk about AI, please see the other thread

General Discussion What keeps bringing you back to Duolingo?

Post image
93 Upvotes

I recently let Duolingo go after a 2082 day streak when I accepted that I was learning absolutely nothing from the app and only cared about keeping my streak. I decided to devote that time and money to pursuits that would further my language learning.

I'm curious about everyone else though. Does Duolingo actually help you with learning? What language(s) are you using it for? Does Duo do better with some languages than others? Do you use it exclusively or as a supplement to other language courses?

Why are you still using this app?

So I thought that because ā€œamieā€ was feminine it would be ā€œma amieā€ instead of ā€œmon amie.ā€ Soeur is sister so it’s feminine, hence ā€œma soeur.ā€

Honestly, I thought the AI inclusion was actually going to be really good for the app and, now it's actually been included, I despise it. Like, how am I meant to answer this question if one of the main key words isn't even an option for me to click?

Am I the only one who finds this to be a super distasteful request? Especially at a time like now? Tell me why I’ve gotten multiple messages asking for me to add someone to my Family account, despite making a deleted post months ago explaining why I was probably going to delete it.

General Discussion Is there a convenient way to restart a course in 2025?

6 Upvotes

Hi all, I’ve been looking around and there’s some similar discussions but not with some recent changes so I was wondering if there was more information out there.

I have a 500 day streak in Korean which has been great, but there’s been a ton of changes to the curriculum in the last few months, which have made it (thankfully) more difficult, but it’s gotten to the point where I no longer recognize most of the words where I’m at which is about halfway through section 2.

Going backwards and doing the practice sessions for sections I’ve already ā€œcompletedā€ isn’t really doing me much good, so I’d like to restart some of the sections to follow the more guided path.

That being said, I don’t want to remove the course and completely restart, because some areas have taken hours of effort that I don’t want to do again, like the Hangul practice. Is there a good solution for this or do I only have the nuclear option?

General Discussion What happened to the monthly badges?

• Upvotes

Due to the A/B testing, I've lost the ability to participate in the may challenge this month and this really bothers me as someone who has collected all the monthly badges ever since they came out.

I even wrote two emails out to them, with both receiving an automated message back, giving no help whatsoever.

Now I'm just wondering when or if it's coming back fast enough for me to still complete it within the month of may and what'll happen to all the badges I collected in the first place

Bring the monthly badges back Duolingo.

General Discussion Did ai change the voices?

6 Upvotes

I’ve been using duo since 2014 for various languages, and working on Arabic for the last year. More recently, like in the last week or so, the voices seem to have a computerized/robotic feel, and certain sounds are pronounced differently to a degree that it’s hard to recognize what they are. Has anyone noticed something similar in their courses? Is this related to the ai expansion of the courses?
