I was so upset last year when they got rid of the comment section. There were often helpful explanations for WHY you conjugate the word that way, or how native speakers might use a different word.

Yeah, the comment section was amazing...and then they came out with "max", where you get "explain my answer" for a premium, powered by a [notoriously fallible] LLM. This is the definition of enshitification.

I'm pretty frustrated they removed dark mode as well, made it very hard to do a lesson before bed.

Duolingo? Mine still has dark mode. Maybe just for subscriptions?
