Re: Paying for Duolingo. Would you ?

There's a very good chance I won't be renewing my Super Duolingo membership when it comes due the next time. The biggest issue for me is the inability to choose to which crown level I want to take a skill. There are some languages I'm only interested in learning superficially, so just going to Level...

@cannonplug You get extra XP for practicing purple circles?

No, just the 10. Same as for any other practice.

I get 40XP for legendary on the web. 10 XP for normal practice. 10+ 5 or less for crown lessons.

Yes, I get the same: 40 for completing a legendary exercise, but once it's purple, I only get 10XP for practising that skill or for repairing the cracked skill.

Re: XP for practice on the "legendary" level

And on the web you still only get 10 XP with no bonuses for practice, legendary or otherwise. Is it to steer people towards the apps? I can't see another reason why there would be such a discrepancy. I don't really care that much about XP, which is why I'm sticking with the web version. I prefer the...

Re: A new streak graphic?

[mention]Corinnebelle[/mention] Not necessarily an A/B test because I don't think they need to test new graphics. Probably just a gradual rollout, but what do I know? I'm really just speculating here.

however, i dont see a "edit profile" button on my profile page??(with a screenshot attatched)

That's odd. Can't say I've ever come across that. I would probably submit a bug report to Duolingo: https://support.duolingo.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Re: Unable to change username

I just linked my profile without issue. You don't need to change your Duolingo account user name for that, only your handle. In Duolingo, click on your photo, then on "Your Profile" and then on the button that says "Edit Profile". That's where you change the field that says "...

I don't recall a particular phrase, but the Latin course has quite a few dealing with drunk parrots.

Mine hasn't changed (on the web). It looks like they're implementing this change gradually as they usually do.

Re: XP Inflation

Getting 40 XP for something you've done already is ludicrous. How do you compete with that, The different XP values they place on different exercises is really ludicrous. Compare that to the web version, where the most you can get for a practice session is 10 XP. And the most you'll get for a lesso...

Re: My Duome not updating since June 22nd.

Well, like others, I too found out that turning your profile to public is not always successful. Right now, my Duome stats aren't updating even though my profile is public. There must be something else going on with the communication between the two systems.

That was a long time ago in another lifetime. The job is indeed "neat", but the job conditions were not so good. So I left after 10 years. :?

My Duolingo user name is simply my first name followed by the initials of my wife's last name and mine. My forum name has two meanings. I used to be an airplane electrician. Airplane electrical connectors are commonly called cannon plugs, because Cannon is or was one of the most common brands of con...

Re: My Duome not updating since June 22nd.

Yes! Making the profile public does allow Duome to refresh. It's just a matter of making it private again before doing any lessons so that you don't get entered into a league. My Duome page did get updated sometime yesterday, even with the private profile. But it only did so once and then got stuck ...

Re: My Duome not updating since June 22nd.

My page was last updated on the 27th. That of my "opponent" on the graph, on the 28th. So yes, something does appear to be glitchy these days.
