But... that said, as someone who's only done a bit of German on Duolingo, I don't mind, especially for early-stage services. It says to me more work needs to be done around l10n and copywriting, but as long as they keep improving the core product, it's okay.

In fact what annoys me more than awkward English are teams that download and use generic English-language website templates, resulting in super-generic product pages.
