This is yet another intimidation tactic. I have a 1200 day streak on Duolingo because the owl bullies me and I am weak.
Same. I have the widget on my phone where my home screen has a little owl with motivational messages about keeping up your good learning habit. By 10PM it turns dark red and there is no more motivational message. Just an evil stare by the owl. That’s usually when I get around to doing my lesson…
I love that someone decided that intimidation of its users was the best way to give the app a competitive advantage
Slightly off topic but can someone explain to me what the fuck is supposed to be happening in this widget image?
I might have an idea… You ever seen Requiem for a dream?
Have you seen catdog?
what the fuck
“Let’s practice”
…Let’s fuckin NOT.Practice what exactly, Duolingo?!
What in the fuck
Is this the sequel to goatse?

I legit thought this was fake until I looked it up.
Haha, if the goal was to get people other than podcasters talking about the app, they accomplished that mission.
Melted Duolingo isn’t real. It can’t hurt you.
Melted Duolingo: …
To be fair, I just tried to get back into duolingo a few days ago and it is straight up bonkers trash now.
I learned many languages on it and I am incredibly disappointed that after I took a few years off traveling and came back, it is basically unusable at this point.
Maybe that’s the point of the new app icon? To say the app is melting?
Either that or Halloween or both.
I think you’re right.
