I like that's it's more real life, the talking, people, subjects etc. Think I'll use it for a while, because on duolingo I wasn't evolving much anymore in German, this goes further up it seems

Just as pushy as duolingo unfortunately in ads and mainly in pushing to and rewarding premium.

    Yeah, the adds take up some time, but I still find the overall experience less annoying than I did with Duolingo last time I used it. The push towards human interaction, which Duolingo has actively pushed away from, is also welcome.
