Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide
Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:
"I just want an identical experience to DL"
Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)
"I want a good audio-based app"
Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)
"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"
Pimsleur (Literally so many languages)
Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)
*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.
"I have a pretty neat library card"
Mango (Languages: So many and all endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)
"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"
AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)
"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"
AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone
"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"
lingory
"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"
ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)
"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"
Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)

news documentary channels in french on youtube
hi everyone! recently i've been listening to news documentaries for listening practice. the language is understandable and it exposes you to a bunch of different topics. i'll update the list as i find more!
arte: on the shorter side in comparison with the videos from the other channels, varied reporting on lots of different topics, but i'm especially a fan of the episodes about social media and the internet.
food story: exactly what it sounds like, documentaries about food, how it's made, restaurants, etc.
750g tv: this one is similar to food story, in case you want more varied options.
ailleurs - reportages voyages: travel and tourism, in a lot of their videos they go to french communities in other countries to see why they moved to that place, what they are doing in the local community, etc.
a decouvert: this channel is about finances and the economy, but for some reason i really like their videos on how supermarkets run.
reportages et investigations: this channel isn't as specialized as the others, but as a result has a large variety of topics to choose from.
if you know of any others, send them my way and i'll check them out and add them to the list!

Reposting this tweet from Abdalhadi Alijla عبد الهادي العجلة (@alijla2021):
"Via Scott Long. For those interested, I've uploaded my entire library of books on Palestine/Israel to the cloud, in digital form (mostly pdf and epub) so you can access them. It's a little over 1700 books, a lot of them good and important, some of them historical or political curiosities. Nearly all are in English, I'm afraid. You can download any that interest you individually, or the whole library (about 13 GB). And feel free to share this."
