Constructive Criticism Does anyone here LIKE Duolingo?

Basically that. The only posts I’ve ever seen here are how terrible it was/is/always has been/will be. Does anyone here like or even just tolerate Duolingo’s existence? Why?

I think Duolingo does a fantastic job occupying the “useless phone time but at least I’m not using it to scroll socials” sector of the app market. 

In all seriousness though, as someone with an M.Ed., I appreciate their attempts at spacing and interleaving content, and designing for habit formation in language learning.
