Is it just me or does the Duolingo bird looks sad/old/tired? What happened to the previous icon?

Duolingo keeps doing mass layoffs, so the bird is overworked. You can help him out by switching to a language learning app that actually helps you learn a language instead of endlessly throwing flash cards at you without teaching you anything! Win win.

What app do you recommend? I've seen good progress with duolingo since I upgraded to premium but I'm willing to try something different

Language Transfer has been highly recommended in the past. I’ve only gotten through two lessons so far, but it seems like a good place to start, at least. It doesn’t have anywhere near as many languages as Duolingo does, though.
