Duolingo Crashes Worldwide, Users Panic Over Lost Streaks!

Duolingo users were in for a surprise today when the popular language learning app suddenly stopped working. Reports started rolling in around 14:00 GMT, with thousands of frustrated learners unable to access their lessons.

Down Detector, a site that tracks online outages, quickly confirmed the issue. Users across the world took to social media, venting about the crash and joking (or maybe not) about their precious streaks being at risk.

“This better not mess up my 200 day streak!” one user posted, while another wrote, “Duolingo is down. Guess I’ll never learn French.”

At the moment, there’s no word from Duolingo on what’s causing the issue or when the app will be back. In the meantime, users are left refreshing the app and hoping their streaks survive the outage.
