Ever since DuoLingo announced it was pivoting away from human workers to AI, I’ve enjoyed my visits with the spunky little owl less and less.
Today’s switch from the “hearts” system to “energy” was just too much.
It used to be, you could keep doing lesson after lesson as long as you answered correctly most of the time. But the new energy bar drops slightly after every answer you give, whether right or wrong.
I did not like feeling like I had to micro-manage the energy bar.
I spent more than 20 minutes a day with this app for five years, but a few months ago I decided I would stop my streak at 1999.
I don’t want to wait any longer.
