Reply to comment by dupattaluella in LPT: want to learn a new language, but have no money? Check out your local university library by cuevadanos

Duolingo is a paid app, tho, unless you want 70% of your learning time to be watching ads

So now people are complaining about free resources because they need to watch ads. 🤦‍♀️

Ads means it’s not free, it’s advertised. And the amount of ads on Duolingo is crazy. Also, there are better apps

Lol. If you don't have to give money for the product, it's free. It's like saying Pluto TV isn't free, boradcast TV isn't free, Plex isn't free, Tubi isn't free, Spotify isn't free, and so on.

Well, that's why it's a better supplement than a single source. Sometimes frustration sets in when your flashcards have an ad break

I agree it's better supplemental than single source. I think everyone should be using more than an app or book. Immersion is the best way to learn a new language, but other than moving to a new country that's tough to do.
