I know they sometimes get a bad rap
In terms of their language learning, they proudly make the decision that any time they have to choose between making the app fun and making it better at teaching, they choose fun.
Which sounds bad at first, until you realise...people who aren't enjoying what they do are more likely to quit. And people who have quit aren't learning the language at all. Quite a clever bit of thought there, really.
I have been going through Japanese lessons for 258 days (counting today). My goal is at least a full year. Got less than 100 days to go!
I can just about do what I set out to accomplish: Understand anime without subtitles. 😎
