Recently started Busuu for Russian
The quality is far better than that of Duolingo and I've been enjoying it
To commit to my language learning I paid for a full year of premium Duolingo. I'm on my 140th day I think and I'm kind of regretting my choice.
So now I'm just gonna finish the full year and then consider switching to Busuu. I tried in it the past and I have to agree that the courses have more study material than those of Duo's.
To compensate I'm testing investing more time per day to advance a little faster. I was thinking of posting a review once I finish the year.
Duolingo just updated their Chinese lessons. Which means there are a bunch of words in earlier sections I don't know and my progress got a bit messed up. It's not the end of the world, but I'm seriously considering deleting my account's progress in their Chinese course so that I can go through the whole thing again.
