Turns out you can speedrun Duolingo, and someone did an entire course in 24 hours

Long gone are the days of speedrunning being confined to mere video games. You can gamify anything into speedrun territory these days: Wikipedia, Google Maps and even gamified language learning apps like Duolingo, as proven by one person who managed to blast through the entire Spanish course in 24 hours. Well, sort of.

Reddit user quilqon, also known as JoZapinski on YouTube, posted his attempt to complete all 205 units of Duolingo's Spanish course as fast as he could. In his Reddit post, he said "I already speak Spanish so I just went with that since my goal was to try and speedrun the whole thing," mentioning that he thought it would only take him around 12-14 hours to complete, though that wasn't the case.
