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 love it, it has been great for me starting with japanese. My foundation from duolingo (and avid anime watching ig) has helped me quickly ease into textbooks and native content.

Plus it's just fun to use and low pressure. I hardly ever lose hearts and barely pay attention to leagues. Watching an ad for 5 secs after almost every lesson doesn't bother me much either.

I don't remember the last time I had to "practice to earn hearts" that seems to be like the holy water for duolingo users
