Duolingo

If you subscribe to Duolingo Super, how many promotions for Duolingo Max do you see?

Enough to irritate or only occasionally? I'm not paying to be bombarded by ads 

[Khandro]

I use ordinary Duolingo (Latin) and don't get any ads, I guess adblock removes them.

[barry1010]

I use it on my phone

[naomi24]

Put an ad block on your phone.  I use BlockBear.

[barry1010]

Does it work with apps?

[barry1010]

Blockbear is not available for android

I'm also interested to know if this works with apps.
I've just hit a 2223 day streak (Spanish) and I only use the basic free version of DL.

To be honest, the ads don't really bother me ..... when they come on I turn my phone volume down and put the phone down for 30 seconds or so.

That clears that up them ..... your answer wasn't there when I started typing.

I type waaaaaay to slow lol  :(

[Gizmonster]

"too" slow .... before any grammar police correct me  :)

[barry1010]

*way*  😁

I can put up with the ads as I don't pay for it, but if I do choose to pay I don't want to be bombarded with ads for Duolingo Max

 

[naomi24]

If BlockBear doesn't work for your phone Google adblocks for android.

I'm on day 1040 on the ordianary Duolingo (on android phone) and I only get an ad once I've finished my lesson and can always cross it off after about 4 seconds. Ads have never been an issue.

[Old_Geezer]

Oh it has ads now, does it. Pity, but inevitable I guess. I used to use it pre-ad days, in fact pre the days they had childish cartoon characters, as I recall my disappointment when they were introduced. I was half contemplating trying it again with a different language, seeing if I had more success with an easier language, but if there's ads I think I'll give it a miss.

[theshedman]

I used to use it for the Spanish course and can't remember getting many if any ads.  Haven't used it for a while now but may get back into it soon.  Also found the Michel Thomas Spanish course very good, got full course for £2 on ebay a while back.

[Khandro]

OG, Don't you have a pc ? 

[Old_Geezer]

I do at my place, but I'm not at one place at all times. A lot of Internet stuff I do now is on the Android tablet or mobile phone; they being portable.

[Khandro]

OG; As there's no real urgency as to when you use Duolingo why not confine it to your pc with free Adblock plus? I don't get any ads at all.

My hearing is a bit impaired so my pc is connected to a good stereo sound system too.  

[Old_Geezer]

I shall consider it, but when back there's loads to do. Also if I don't make something a regular habit, it gets forgotten and eventually dropped. Not intentionally but nevertheless.
