After reading most of the books on a website for the graded reading that I am, I ran out, so ended up getting a Satori free account. I think it's still higher level than what I currently am, even for beginner, but I can make out the text clear enough if not the words. I'd probably recommend giving that a try if you think you're able for it. The free account there's no real commitment to anything and you can test out yourself if its your thing or not.
Just a small recommendation.
Thanks for the rec! I have tried out Satori, I really like it and I need to use it more.
Some things bug me - I don't think they have a desktop version, there's a tiny bit of loading up front. But mainly, that's one I really wish I could buy a lifetime subscription to. Most are hard for me to justify, I think that one would be worth. Free is already really good though, lots there and I haven't really taken advantage, good reminder.
Oh that's weird, I have only used Satori through my desktop, but I guess it's because I'm using desktop mode through my Steam Deck or something? Or maybe not even that, but I've ended up managing to make it work on a desktop environment. Maybe they only recently made it accessible on desktops?
And yeah, I plan on running through as much Satori as I can for free before paying. I do believe in it's goal, and wouldn't mind paying earlier if I had the funds, but cash is cash and I'm sort of financially not in the best situation, so want to stall when I can.
Ooh, hopefully I'm working from bad or outdated information. I'll look back into it.
