Oh no. I am so upset. Now how are they getting money? Donations? Surviving on the leftovers? I hope it will always be free. I feel so guilty now.... What are we going to do?

Hello Jack! You probably don't know/remember me, I'm SilverCharacter from Duolingo.

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your support and positive attitude through the insane, chaotic happenings on Duolingo. At this point on the forums, older, experienced users are angry, sad, and annoyed and younger, newer users are confused and perplexed. I am so happy to see whenever you have posted in the forums. Your presence is calming and relaxing through the mess that Duolingo is right now.

As for me, I believe I'll take a break for a week or two, maybe a month, from the tumultuous Duolingo discussions...I need some time to focus on language learning without the disorganization and sadness of that place. In the meantime, I'll focus on the learning aspect of the website and mourn quietly over the apparent loss of activity and stream and removal of Immersion.

Thank you again for your gentleness! I will most definitely be checking this blog for updates on whatever is happening at Duolingo. <3
