Make sure to cancel apps that use Gen AI, and be vocal that that's why you're canceling.
I thought Qlango was an ethical alternative to Duolingo. But not only do they engage in Duolingo's shitty naggy notifications, they also give an "ask AI!" option, even when you answer a question correctly.
If you want to learn Japanese without supporting technofascism and destroying our dying planet, these are apps that are completely without "Gen AI" and will never nag you with notifications. I have months and years of experience to back that up:
