Trouble is the sort of investment that's uncorrelated right up to the moment you need it to be, at which point it crashes in lockstep
if you use Rust enough it just grows like that

They are indeed all run by the same people.
Not as far as I know.
I did the Spanish-from-English course, which I understand was the best course on Duolingo, from start to finish over 2 years. I also skimmed the English-from-Spanish course.
I got good enough to pick my way slowly through Salvadoran newspaper articles, which is basically what I wanted. (This also teaches me more words.) I need to ping my Spanish-speaking friends to teach me how to fucking speak it though, Duolingo didn't teach me shit.
(The tabloid newspapers are easy. The pompous newspapers write in a fancy tone which ~nobody in .sv uses. I really wanna read El Faro in Spanish, but it writes in high-level sarcastic and pissed-off. Still a subscriber tho. Guess I gotta git gud!)
.sv Twitter was easy, cos it turns out shitposting is the universal human tongue.
I understand Spanish-from-English in particular has decayed badly in the AI era. Apparently it randomly started teaching someone "vosotros" which was never previously introduced. Pretty sure it still doesn't teach "vos", which is annoying (.sv uses vos).
Its main advantage was that I did it at all - the gamification tickled my brain just right - and I did in fact learn anything from it.
I was a paying customer, but my subscription finished a few months after the AI memo, so adios.
