I’d like to know when this was created and if people who work at Duolingo even know the existence of it. The app is filled with ads on the free tier, with ads appearing after every single lesson. I’ve seen this for over a year. If anything, they don’t make courses universally available. They make them universally annoying.
Even if they’re targeting specific users for the ads to upgrade, they shouldn’t make it so annoying. If they want the (freeloading) user to leave the platform, then they should stop notifications bugging the user to not break the streak.
Something is very wrong with how Duolingo’s ad system is implemented. With this background, I can’t believe that they follow anything from this handbook that was probably written at the start by someone who’s no longer with the company.
