Seen as you decided to add an edit that you were returning to Duolingo, what exactly is your goal because it certainly isn't to effective learn any language.

6 months ago you asked Lemmy for more effective alternatives to Duolingo and people gave you lots of alternatives that are a lot more effective including myself recommending Busuu and others recommending language transfer, both of which piss all over Duolingo which is utter trash.

You make so many posts on Lemmy but then rarely actually interact with them further beyond the initial drivel you spout, when you do receive advice after asking for it it seems you just ignore it anyway so what is the point?

Maybe it seems like I'm picking on you and honestly I am, purely because of things you said back in that early Duolingo thread you made, I'll just go ahead and quote another of your gems from that thread.

VanHalbgott - "Oh, there’s a new course on Busuu for French that I don’t like that deals with inclusive terms I’m probably not confortable talking about anymore since they deal with genders and sexuality.

I’m trying to be a Christian instead and not talk about those things in my faith, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be learning what is supposed to be teaching me French with weird terminology."

I hope going back to Duolingo they won't have the audacity to teach you gendered words for Spanish, how could your faith possibly deal with that!?

I hope this makes you uncomfortable to read, as uncomfortable as the first incredibles movie or the fact people use memes within the steam communities. People really are so inconsiderate and should really alter their way of being to appease you and your faith!

Oh come on, "I can't learn languages because I'm mentally ill" is a pretty good excuse 😂
