Re: Este parece que es el futuro de Duolingo

¿300 libros en año y medio? Me parece mucho libro, pero si tienes tiempo y ganas es realmente fabuloso. El libro al que te refieres es de gramática, por lo que vi en la vista previa. No son mis favoritos aunque a veces le di algún vistazo a alguno. Con leer no me refiero solamente a libros, me refie...

I wish I were wrong, but there was never any real commitment to promoting something that could be difficult to moderate.
The solution was to fill the forum with nothing: thousands of posts without substance. Easy to moderate but absolutely useless.
