At first, @busuu.bsky.social seems like a @duolingo@mstdn.social knock off but the community features are rapidly winning me over. I do enjoy the gamification of Duolingo but feel itβs precisely that, a game.

I enjoy learning Chinese on Duolingo EXCEPT for the cursed sections that are Hanzi practice. At least I had double XP for todays graft and topping the leaderboard. Take that, Alice!

Iβm not sure when it changed but Phone Link on Windows now supports all notifications, call-handling and send/receive messages for iPhones. Something Iβve missed since switching from Mac a decade ago.

For all the talk by Meta, it seems Fediverse integration works a lot better across Mastodon and Bluesky and Mastodon (my server and many others) actively block federation with Meta. It would be useful to see Threads timeline in @openvibe.social though.

I like this move by Apple to limit battery charging and that I can manually control it. If only Microsoft Surface made it this easy rather than rely on their dodgy AI for βsmartβ charging

Question for @duolingo@mstdn.social users who have been using for a while. Do you feel this is an aid to languages learning or just a very addictive game? Iβm new to it and on a 21 day streak.
