I’m trying it, thanks!
they're still aren't many very good alternatives. I like busuu but less popular languages are not comprehensive, so it depends on what you're learning.
I also like drops but you can only study for 3 minutes at a time three times a day unless you pay.
that said, duo is complete trash now, so I still used busuu and drops rather than Duolingo while I was in India.
I also think a lot of language-specific apps are good, so if you're studying a particular language, just search for learning Chinese or learning Spanish rather than "Duolingo alternative" or "language learning app".
you'll get a lot of good vocabulary and grammar and you can study without those idiotic hearts.
