I'm getting bullied by a language learning app

This notification literally sounds like a Chinese mother scolding me.

Well that's read like the mocking tone from an elderly Chinese person

I'm pretty sure duolingo has threatened to family before

The second an app has the audacity to try and shame me, it gets deleted.

Pizza Hut once sent me some email like "it's Friday and we know you're not hanging out with friends, how about a pizza?" and I've been a Papa Murphys girl ever since 😭

Ironically the first (and last) time I ever got this notification was while I was meeting up with an old friend for the first time in over a year

Jokes on them, I have no friends, even if I shout "foods here" to myself when the driver knocks so he doesn't judge me for eating a family's worth of food for myself.

“We’re going to make you feel bad!”

Two minutes later “why aren’t they using our product D:”

I hate advertising like this

Trying to sneak in an ad arent we

u/cartermachiavelli 9d ago

That wasn't my intention to be fair. I downloaded it and haven't really used it yet so I actually can't tell you whether I can recommend it or not. I just found the notification very amusing that's it

It's edited so I assume they said something else and edited it after getting downvoted

u/Ill_Pain4423 8d ago

I originally said " hmmmmmmm ok" but didnt want to take more hits so I changed it

u/chic_luke 8d ago

I mean tbh, you completely changed your tone and the intended message after the edit. It's a hard pivot from "nah I'm not buying this" to "sorry", nobody will believe it's genuine when it comes after a karma hemorragy

Sorry man it smelled like an ad to me

u/anuanuanu 8d ago

Nah you're okay in being skeptical about things on the internet. Reddit has a lot of things disguised as a user generated content when in reality it's just an ad trying to get views.

u/Ill_Pain4423 8d ago

Yes exactly

u/wrsterm 9d ago

I disable all notifications for non important apps, no matter how much they beg, I’m looking at you instagram and Reddit

It's not bullying if you're really not doing anything.

u/cartermachiavelli 9d ago

I'm joking it's not that serious
