I'm almost at a year. Very proud of myself

Still can't really speak German though

Yeah, it is a bad tool for learning to speak a language.

[–] tabularasa@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

I disagree with this. It can be used like any other tool. If you put the proper effort into it, you can be successful.

I got a 161 day streak for Japanese and I can understand about 1 out of every 5 sentences watching anime now. But I literally never do the speaking lessons; just the listening.

Streaks don't mean as much as how long you're actually spending learning, but at the end of the day you can't beat immersion.
