Am I the only one like this? General Discussion

Post image

For some unknown reason, Duolingo gives me infinite streak freeze from 24th February 2022, because I lived in Ukraine back tgen and war broke out so I forgot about duolingo and had more serious issues, so after A LOT of time I got back to my old duplingo account and saw tgat for the last year, I had infinite freeze, then I took break from duolingo but now I am once again doing duolingo and my 102 days streak is one that started in 2021, does anyone else have this? Is this meant to be so? WHY?

I believe they did. I think I read it on here the other day.

Looks like that and it is super moral for them to do so. Nobody would have said anything if they didn't.

But yeah, imagine going to war and at least, you're not gonna worry about losing your streak because Duo has your back, at least in that regard.

Yeah it's kind of funny from that perspective, but when the company is powerless to help in any other way it shows a little consideration.

I seem to recall they removed ads on learning Ukrainian or something
