Duolingo is a tragedy. They really quickly realized that you don’t make money teaching things - you make it on retention and gamification.

Mango languages is great if your library has a subscription. I believe the US’s foreign service materials are also really good, if you want effective but boring.

Tell me more about Mango library subscriptions? How would one determine?

Your local library may have a Mango subscription plan for card holders. You might be able to find it on their website but a librarian would definitely know.
