Try tweeting at them. They seem to respond to tweets.

Please, in situations like this - do not try to be sneaky.

For so many reasons.

It is not worth it.

There are, in the WWW - people that are seaking actively to scam and abuse you.
And also your family and others in your broader community.

Don't do it.

Do not trust random people on the internet.

Please share and have trust in real people - people that really care for you, such as people in your physical closer community.
Yet know, there are also others in your wider community that wish you to be safe.
And yes - it is complicated.

If in doubt - don't do it. Don't try to be sneaky.

While there are others in your community - more so in my knowledge/experience base - that do not know you directly - they wish to abuse you in ways that are inappropriate - whatever age you are.

Also - don't reveal you age on the internet - whatever age you are. Be you 20, or 40, or 70. Or whatever age. They wish to abuse you.
People seeking to abuse you - they use this information to do their abuse.

And can also - in ways - often cross reference information - and use that to abuse others you know.
Including to abuse others you know - that can be either older or younger than you.

Please - be wise. Please, keep yourself safe - and don't be foolish and seek to be sneaky.

Just curious. What does "being sneaky" mean in this context? How can you "tweet sneakily"?

Are these two links any help to you?

https://support.duolingo.com/hc/en-us/a ... -or-login-

Tweeting probably more reliable, but here's their help form.

If that's what it takes, by all means!

Those image links are not working.

Anyway:

  1. did you received the confirmation email, or not?

  2. if you received it, where are you checking your email: phone or computer
    • if you are not using your phone, then try it there, that seemed to work for many persons

  3. consider also the browser vs. app situation
    • whatever you have been using, try the other

  4. if you didn't receive the email, then maybe it has to do with the email address
    • some systems detect when one is using a disposable address and they either explicitly reject them (notify the user) or they simply ignore them: Duolingo takes the second approach

I have just created a new account. I started with a disposable address… not a single word after clicking on the verify link several times and waiting for a reasonable amount of time. I then changed it to a hotmail address and I immediately received the email and was able to verify the account.

Using a laptop, Windows 10, Chrome browser. No phone, no app.

after a while i got an email for the account i created to try to get verified so it isnt the email […]

So, the email initially took a long time to arrive, but you finally got it. Then you clicked the confirmation button on the email but nothing happened.

This seems to be the case I first mentioned, about people clicking on the button from the computer without success, but then trying from a phone, in which case they finally managed to get their account verified.

Could you ask a friend to let you use the browser to get to your email account and click on the confirmation button of the email? I really think this should solve it. What email provider you used in this first attempt? Yahoo? Gmail?

Ok. In this second attempt you used Hotmail and you also received the email, but nothing is happening after clicking on the confirmation button. This is what I have understood.

So you are having the same situation as before. You receive the email, you click the button, but nothing happens.

Assuming I have understood correctly, then you should definitely ask for a friend's phone, open the browser, login to hotmail, open duo's message, and click the button. I am sure this will do.
