    I say: I can’t stand the CEO of Duolingo, and his supremely punchable smirk-face.

    Any alternatives for learning Japanese? I have already learned about 500 words and 20 kanji.

      I am using lingodeer to learn korean, but i know it also has Japanese. I was using duolingo for korean and Japanese, but the korean lessons were terrible.

      I haven’t used it much, but www.wanikani.com claims they are pretty good.

      I haven’t worked with it myself as I’m not working on Japanese right now, but I had a recommendation recently for Satori Reader.

      You shouldn’t have given them money in the first place.

      Did you learn your lesson, or are you going to throw money at another proprietary product while thinking you’re “helping out”?

        I mean I’ve been using DuoLingo for like a decade (only paid the last 2 years) and it’s been very useful until now.
