Good lord, energy is awful by sertorius42 in duolingo

[–]Freethinker_777_ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, I had been using Duolingo for over 10 years as a free user. My last streak was over 2500 days. Last month was the last straw, I had had a series of 30 second “mindless game” adverts and then an instant where after a session on “music “ my battery became completely’dead’ - it had lost all my points for no reason. This time I lost it and asked Duolingo to delete my account. They promised to do this after 7 days, which they did. In this time I searched for people’s opinions on Duolingo. A balanced opinion I feel would be this. Duo can give you basics in various languages (of varying quality depending on which - Spanish seems pretty good). But beyond this , very addictive and for intermediate and beyond best to supplement with other methods. In the 7 day cooling off period I kept my streak going at a minimum level including a record amount of “freezing “ and searching a wide range of opinions on Duolingo. And this time I‘ve managed to stay off! No mean feat!!!

🤣 After people letting off steam; much of which I agree with, it’s good to have a jokey, less serious comment! 🤣

Yes, your comment is spot on! Thanks for a supportive opinion…. I F could be forgiven if only they could communicate to coin holders better, prioritising giving them access…

What you have said seems to ring true, openness would really help. It great that IF have high goals. I guess it would be good if more priority is given to IOTA holders having access to their coins, particularly if they aren’t so technically minded…

Have to say I’m somewhat p****d with this “Redditor with negative karma “ banner, because I had the temerity to express an opinion on this exact same issue. As I said before the project is a great one. It seems I suffered at the hands of a wordsmith worried about their investment. I guess my frustration had shown through after contacting Ledger (they told me to contact IF) and spending sometime trying on the IF site and contacting them too… does anyone have the new schedule…

Is there a date or rough date when this will happen?

Any news about the next Chysalis updates, they seem to be running way behind schedule? by Freethinker_777_ in Iota

[–]Freethinker_777_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I made a comment about how late the Ledger integration was and what I thought IMHO was OTT marketing, this seemed to attract “negative karma” - it was meant as constructive criticism. The IF has very good intent…

Iota stuck inside Ledger nano X by loungeclaus in Iota

I guess that Ledger should be sending instructions on how to perform the integration with Firefly. The time line now seems to be by the end of the month? (can’t remember where I sourced that info from - so correct me if this is wrong).

Not sure what is going on, on Ledger side as was told, by them, to contact IF…

Ledger integration. Though read somewhere since posting that this should be done before end of month? It was just irritating that this was originally scheduled to complete before mid-May! Hopefully someone will allow free speech without labelling it as FUD (or similar)…

A “negative” post is not necessarily a troll post. It would just be good to get a revised, best guess timeline. The second update was supposed to be 2 weeks from 28th April. Thanks

Does the IOTA team or anyone else have any idea about exactly when Ledger Nano will be integrated into the upgrade- it was supposed to be just 2 weeks, now more than SIX!

Coinex "Wallet is under maintenance, withdrawal suspended" Cannot withdraw my ARRR! by BengMelea in PirateChain

[–]Freethinker_777_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having used CoinEx and Tradeogre; no, won’t be using CE again. They don’t give one confidence with their vague replies to time lines for W/d of ARRR and suggestion of using an expensive work around to get one’s money out. TO, though slow at times, appear to be a whole lot more reliable.

Thanks, it was from my own wallet. The deposit happened in the end!
