Duolingo says it's seen a 216% increase in Mandarin learners using the app compared to a year earlier.

      Personally I don’t care about the “why” so long as the end result is greater understanding between the working classes of different cultures.

        No definitely not lol I think it’s awesome honestly. I’m just saying none of these people are doing it out of an interest in Chinese culture or the language itself or achieving something valuable and fulfilling. A really hard thing at that, too. No instead they’re doing this very hard thing literally because they want to scroll lmao. Which, again, net positive in every way you look at it. But it is wild and I think pretty hilarious to think about
