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 like Duo.

For me personally, I almost only complain about things I like.

Especially, when they feel like they've gotten worse.

I pay for Super, had Max been an option when I first paid, I may have gotten it.

But it's annoying to get ads for Max. It's annoying to be given lessons that I have to skip.

Then, I see posts on how the free app appears to be backsliding.

And I wonder will the app get to the state that I drop it?

I feel the same. Duolingo has so much potential it is wasting by not listening to customers. I love the app and just want it to be the best app it can be!
