At the very beginning, just enough to maintain a streak. Once I started getting into it, I spent quite a bit of time on it, up to a couple of hours a day on average at the peak. It’s worth noting this is on the desktop version, so that meant a lot of typing actual sentences. I’m not sure how Duolingo works these days and if anything’s changed, so I’m not sure if I would do things differently if I were to be learning today.

Thanks. The French tree is now quite large. I'm currently about 15% done with the entire tree, but 2/3 through the A1 content. Sometimes 15 minutes a day when I'm not feeling super motivated, an hour or two on other days. I'm thinking about taking the DELF A1 test through Alliance Française as a progress check and to get used to the test process. Don't know if I'll get all the way to B2 in one year, but your story is very motivating!
