And it’s so true about Duolingo. They push you to “play” to a point that it’s stressful. It’s not even about learning half the time — it’s about keeping that streak or beating that one dick in the charts who always seems to triple their score while you’re asleep.
My daughter keeps texting me screenshots of her “streak” achievements as if that means anything. And then when I ask her how to say something in German she barely knows a thing.
It can be done to a stupid degree. Duolingo defines the outer limits.
