I just stumbled across LangX which has been amazing since I’ve been so dissatisfied with HelloTalk. I started using HelloTalk before I knew anything about user data privacy or open source software. Now that I’ve gained some technological insight, proprietary ad-driven software feels gross.

Anyhoo, LangX seems to have a generous free tier and their annual subscription is honestly not that expensive compared to other languages learning programs out there.

It is new enough that the user base is small, but it reminds me of Lemmy where the best thing people could offer it is participation. I’m usually a lurker, but I wanted to share because I enjoy learning Spanish, I enjoy open source software, and I want others to try it too!

  • p.s. I am not affiliated with LangX whatsoever and this genuinely what I wanted to write.

Well how about that… Egg on my face. I still don’t think it’ll have the in-app tools that LangX has for studying. LangX lets you capture and study any phrase you want using spaced repetition.

That spaced repetition is what I use Anki for. I just copy and paste whatever and make a new card. It takes only a moment. There's a million other apps that do spaced repetition for free, all slightly different.
