Is there some project that the opensource world is missing that you think it needs?

    Open source language learning only has Anki. Everything else is in an enbryonic stage.

    There are so many low hanging fruits. Add-on to look up words in subtitles and add it to Anki. Luo dingo clone that’s a bit less tedious (without having to write so much of your native language). Clozemaster clone (unless someone knows how to set up Anki to do this)

      See I just started getting into learning another language and like most people I just downloaded Duolingo. But now on YouTube everybody recommends Anki. Over anything else I mean also immersion but like Anki is the go-to so I think Open source won

      100% agree, would like to see more stuff in this space. Do you have any links to more “enbryonic tools”. I recall seeing another tool awhile ago that I tested (can’t remember the name) that worked a bit like LingQ. It would run a webserver and you could read links through it and mark words you didn’t understand. I couldn’t really get into a flow using it as tool to learn languages.

        You’re talking about learning with texts

        It’s not great for languages like Korean where you might have a lot of different conjugations that will be detected as new words
