Found this episode fairly interesting (without being particularly interested or personally invested in the space)
- jrowen 11mo agoThis is interesting and a nice conversation, thank you. He talks about how they wanted to let people know that they would stop sending them notifications after five days of inactivity, but that the "passive-aggressive" nature of that notification actually got people to come back. To me it illustrates that it's such a fine line to walk if you want to respect the user but also maybe push through their own lack of motivation. (I'm not a user of Duolingo so I can't speak to where they land on that but it's clearly controversial)
- theshrike79 11mo ago1250 day streak on Duolingo. The funny passive-aggressive communication style is something I personally consider Duolingo's thing. I kinda like it that they have a persona and stick with it in all of their communication. If it was cold and to the point "you have missed today's lesson", I wouldn't come back.
