I really think the vast majority of Duo Lingo users, even the ones who use it every day, never progress past an introductory "101" level in the language. I know people who use it every day for years and know some vocab but can't hold even a basic conversation.

If you actually want to learn the language you have to... Believe it or not... Interact with people who are fluent in the language.

I'd agree, Duolingo is a tool not a silver bullet. That said it's a very useful tool if used well.

Difficult to do if your nation doesn’t have that language though. I’m learning French and there aren’t a lot of French here in the Midwest US for obvious reasons.

I could search them out online but I’m still so new to it I feel like I would just frustrate them

I'm playing a long game

I'm taking quantity over quality, I guess

Thanks. I'm kicking myself a bit because I had 2 years additionally, but I lost it when I went on vacation in a country with really poor internet. C'est la vie :)
