I had a streak of over 1200 days, and after years of reduction in quality and them constantly making the ad based version harder and harder to use, I finally left. AI was the last straw.

I have my eyes on Lingonaut, an app still in beta, and being created by volunteers for free to recreate the early days of Duolingo.

I'm a fan of lingodeer a lot so far. Already learned more in 40 days than I did with 5 months of Duolingo
