Alternatives to Duolingo (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hello,

A few alternatives to Duolingo (which hasn't been that good for a while now)

So here are some tips

  • Drops app - Originally from Estonia, now a Kahoot! company which is from Norway. In few minutes a day for unpaid version it builds your vocabulary and you can also search by the topic. They offer wide range of languages. They also support Ukraine.

  • Babbel - Most widely known subscription-based app where you learn with language professionals. Origin in Germany.

  • Preply - Tutoring platform focused on languages originating in Ukraine. It is like a marketplace where tutors offer their language services and you can book tutor for language you want to learn.

  • Lingoda - German online language school

  • Busuu - they are from Spain but main hub is now in UK. Self-led language app in short lessons.

Babbel is great. Made the switch quite some time ago already when Duolingo decided to cater to Vladolf Putler's homophobic censorship and removed all LGBTQ+ references from their language courses for Russian users instead of just pulling out of the market where they don't even make any money.
