Had the trick explained to me not long ago You have to open the post, and then open the image in the post, to get proper resolutions of images in sync

And I’m not using anything not available to app users, unless you’re using IOS but at this point, I think you have others problems to worry about experience wise overall

You get streak freezes for free now (through quests), relatively often even, I generally get them back in two days if I use both of them in a weekend because I’m busy.

I really considered subscribing until I started using it on Firefox because of the ads, without the ads it’s a great free experience imo

Privacy Badger and ublock origin here, never ever got an ad on Firefox

No, they don’t punish typos, to the point I sometimes have mistakes counted as typos (I distinctly remember typing Schwimmt instead of schwimmst the other day and it said Be careful typos, but counted it right, end up having to check with my gf in those cases)

I don’t know why the experience seems so different between people, maybe it actually is, maybe it’s expectations. All in all it’s free, I don’t forget that and through Firefox android I get a very good experience.

Can’t speak for the entshitification but actively punished unsubscribed users?

I’ve been using it for two months, learning Germans, I just use Firefox in android instead of the app and I get no ads, only 5 failures but I rarely reach that on a daily basis (I don’t want to burnout and I’m pretty sure it’s better for learning to not go too fast) and if I ever reach it, I currently have 1k gems. I’m actually surprised at how little use I’d get out of the subscription.

Yeah, so you missed that what OP talked about was very real. We had much more of those sites based on sharing, and they were much more at the front of the internet.

There is a 0% chance you knew how to use internet back then it seems.
