Odd. I've paid about £100 so far for a subscription and other gamification things.

I don't regret the money, and believe it was worthwhile. But Duolingo isn't free.

It is free though. You don't have to pay to use the service, and the only thing to gain by paying is removal of ads and offline access. All of the content is available for free.
