How Duolingo entertains the masses by flaunting its need for attention


Duolingo is the most famous language learning app on TikTok. There are several things they’re good at - today I’ll cover the first one.

Just like any other app out there, Duolingo wants to be in front of you as much as possible. The social media team behind the app realised that it’s actually similar to being an overly-attached partner. So they created a content theme around it. Here are 3 video examples:

The videos are hilarious because they display melodramatic emotions that we’re all familiar with. This enables them to stand out from other brands, who just focus on pushing their products and services.
