Duolingo really is speedrunning dystopia rn.

I'm still hoping for a FOSS language learning platform to replace these type of services. DuoLingo seems rather limited, to what crowds of volunteers could create by working together.

Early Duolingo was curated and corrected by the community. Clearly people were volunteering to do it, so I don't know why they removed all the community tools and are now using AI to fill the gap.

Lingonaut seems promising, but it isn't open source, or at least not yet. The creator seems open to being convinced though?

Probably not quite what you're looking for, but there's Anki, a software for flashcards. It has some shared decks available for download, and you can make and potentially share your own. It can also be used to study things besides languages.
