Thank you for this! I’m enjoying the Chinese so far.

I’m unable to sign up, though. On mobile, I’m trying to hit the sign up button after filling out the form, but it’s not doing anything or giving me an error.

Glad to hear it! Do you have any preference on traditional Mandarin vs. simplified? It's simplified at the moment.

That's weird. Any chance you could ping me an email with the email you're using to sign up and I'll work out what's going wrong? chris@prettypolly.app. Thanks again.

I'd say you should offer both simplified and traditional in the language dropdown as there are many learners of both.

Interesting, when I go to my purchases in the app store, I see Alien Blue, but consistently when I tap it to try and re-download it, I get a "failed to connect to App Store" error.

What I don’t get is they acquired Alien Blue, which was an amazing app, yet the official Reddit app is nowhere near the quality that AB had years ago.

They're not optimizing for quality.

I wonder if they’ll release an iPad app too, I’d appreciate that.

Lol I knew before clicking it would be NileRed.

I didn't really like chemistry in school, but NileRed makes me wish it was different. Great guy!
