Duolingo is so stupidly annoying these days. It has gotten so much worse compared to a few years ago.

Constant bugging, too many popups that are almost as bad as Microsoft products. I want to learn a goddamn language not jump through a hundred hoops every single time.

Not to mention that it all boils down to a guessing game. Some questions have multiple answers and unless you choose that specific one that DuoLingo had in mind it counts as wrong. It also won't tell you why you guessed wrong.

Are there better apps these days?

Duolingo isn't in the business to teach you a a language, that would mean you won't need the app anymore.

I've used Babbel, it seems more to learn a language, but it requires a paid plan to use. It does work more like an actual language course though, with more emphasis on longer sessions instead of 5 min per day.
