I'm looking for an alternative to duolingo, the main appeal for me of duolingo is the gamification of the app as this helps me to stay consistent (so just normal flashcards would not be suitable).

Thanks in advance

The European alternative is riding your bicycle in one direction for an hour, then talking to the people who live there in their native tongue.

I wish, but an hour by bike wouldn't even get me close to anywhere with a different language, not even another dialect.

According to Google Maps, it'd be 26 hours to get to the closest border by bicycle (500 km).

I wasn't interested in learning Russian BEFORE the war, what makes you think I want to go to that part of town now?
