so she spends one hour or more daily only to get fast 2000 xp in one hour just only to be the first. she learns nothing of course this way. and this happens almost every week.
I agree that this isn't a good way to learn a language.

i think duolingo should close the leagues because it is not ethical, it supports gambling.
they won't. if anything, they'd (and they are) gamify it even more. Because that keeps users hooked. and that in turn gives Duolingo revenue(by ads), and data(which can then be sold, or used internally for all purposes).

Or do such people feel happy if they do this to other users who dont have Plus?
So the more I learn the more time that lady wastes because of me.
I don't think so. I've seen my friends really getting into this gotta get XP frenzy a lot as being on top of the league gives them that dopamine hit. I don't think she's purposefully doing it to make others feel bad.
as a final suggestion, don't worry too much about going up or down in leagues. remember why you're on Duolingo.
XPs and medals won't mean anything if you can't converse well.
