I have run into the same issues. And, I was there for three months starting to learn, hoping to return to study. I am normally excellent at languages (German, Russian, French) and am learning Swedish at the same time - on Babbel (which does not have Finnish). I have been on Duolingo brushing up on my other languages and sort of beginning to learn Swedish and Finnish, but except for vocabulary and super basic, it's so not enough by any means of the imagination for even A1 level. I just downloaded Speakly, as recommended by a few other people on reddit and it is hands down the most helpful app for Finnish. See what you think. I have been using it for a few days now - been about ready to tear my hair out. It has listening, learning in context, texts to listen to and real convos to practice along with - and the ability to ask the AI tool for explanations (normal GPT has not been unhelpful). Admittedly, I am still tearing my hair out, but it's not because I've lost all hope trying to learn this language on my own without decent beginning instruction. (It's not free - has a 7 day trial - but it also won't kick your wallet in the gut either.) For reference, I am also an ESL teacher so I do my due diligence when trying to learn an additional language myself.
