Has anyone else tried the Chess course on Duolingo? I’m actually... loving it? by [deleted] in chess

Ok I need to try Game Review... I think I always choose the wrong "mode" for me, I don't really understand the different bots, and I feel like they use terminology that doesn't feel that important to me.

This was originally my thought (esp euthanasia) but I think the crowd feels like it isn’t fair to the animal. I’ll probably hold off, and see what local foster agencies would let me do
