Blew it

W head a friends quest. I did more than half of it. My husband had two lessons to do. He forgot. It was the only time I haven’t just done it myself or set an alarm. Bummer.

But I kind of don’t care anymore. Since there’s no way to freeze the streak, so to speak, and my 99 in a row are now completely forgotten and cannot even be found anywhere, I’m pretty let down by the whole thing. And it makes me not much care about doing so well in the future. Weird, I know. But that’s how it all feels.

The company has been kind of going to crap the past couple years, anyhow, so I won’t be surprised if we end up no longer using the app at all at some point.

Well, it was fun for a long time, Duolingo, until you stopped caring about learning and cares instead about financial profits. Bummer. I used to recommend it to everyone. I rarely recommend it now.
