Methodology
We analyse anonymous usage events in the learning area of langula.app from 27 Sep 2026 to 26 Oct 2026: 6,111 completed lessons and 64,781 views. Lessons by learners without an account are counted.
We count lessons, not people. Without an account we cannot tell whether two lessons come from the same person; repeating a lesson counts again. Visits by the Langula team and detected bots are excluded.
The data comes from people who use Langula and is not representative of the population. No names, IP addresses or device identifiers are stored; we derive the country from the connection and store only the country code. Only aggregated figures are published; groups with fewer than 20 events are not shown.
