Can you just use duolingo as a translator?
No.
I’m pretty glad I don’t use Duolingo, it’s easier to learn language tips from YouTube
These kinds of figures are pointless without knowing the starting number of users, it could be an increase from 10 to like 30 or something... Also, this sudden rush of articles mentioning rednote seems more like an attempt to induce movement to it, but that could just be me being cynical.

Pessimists Chinese.
