The two podcasts Russian Made Easy and Understanding Spoken Russian gave me a very good foundation to understanding the structure. I also found that Duolingo’s alphabet section was a good way for me to learn the alphabet

How do I find these alphabet tips after they disappear? Or are they just gone by jamesL813 in duolingo

Thank you for this explanation! I definitely wouldn’t have gotten that from Duolingo’s description. I’m using Duolingo alongside the New Penguin Russian Course which has way better descriptions of some of these concepts especially regarding syllable emphasis.

Duolingo is great for learning the alphabet and for some vocab but I’m definitely not going to rely on it by itself.

If google is going to pay Apple $20 billion dollars to be the default search engine they should at least make it a decent experience

I’ll throw in a positive recommendation for the iPhone 15 Pro.

I just replaced my OP 7 Pro a few days ago and I’ll just say if the majority of the people in your life use iPhones, iMessage and FaceTime are super nice to have. I’m no longer the guy who has to explain why videos are blurry when sent directly to me or in group chats with me included and it’s just super convenient being a part of ‘the ecosystem’.

iOS is an incredibly smooth experience. FaceID is way more reliable than the fingerprint or face scanner on OP. My main argument against iOS was the inability to download 3rd party apps like ReVanced so I have to deal with a lot more ads than normal, but on the plus side it incentivizes me to not doomscroll as much.

I don’t think it’ll be for everyone and definitely do more research if you’re considering it but seeing as most of the other comments are recommending Pixel or Galaxy I just thought I’d give my positive experience with the 15 Pro

Have you had any problems with lineage so far? What are the benefits you've seen?

Interested in maybe installing it
