**Giving away free premium access to dangerous, my Japanese language skills app — real-world convos, no fluff**
Longtime Redditor here (since 2006 👴). I wanted to give something back to the community I spend so much time in.
My team and I built a language app called dangerous. The key difference is it helps you learn Japanese by actually speaking and listening. It skips the textbook fluff and gets you into real-world situations—think:
🍜 Ordering food like a boss
💬 Actually holding a convo, not just saying “これはペンです”
💘 Flirting, dating, meeting the in-laws
😳 Even the spicy stuff like foul language (yes, with cultural context)
I’ve used it myself to jump into Japanese while bouncing between Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka. It’s fast, immersive, and designed to get you talking.
I’m giving away free access to the premium version for anyone here who wants to try it. No strings, no upsell—I just want feedback from real learners, and I want to give back to the community.
If you’re interested, drop a comment or DM me and I’ll hook you up with a code.
よろしく!

Hi, I’ve started working on a computer science bachelor’s thesis and I’m looking for people willing to participate in a mini study on flashcards.
My plan is to add a feature to Yomitan that lets the user self-evaluate how well they think they know the word if they have an Anki card for it and they look up that word. Depending on what the user presses the interval will be influenced for that card.
The hope is that this would lead to a similar retention rate with fewer reviews over time. The goal is to create a framework for how this can be evaluated and scaled up to a bigger study, not for this hypothesis to be proven.
I don’t know how long the trial period would be, but the report itself needs to be finished in roughly two months, so probably a few weeks at most. I will also conduct interviews to gauge impressions and user feedback and collect some data on usage.
If you are interested you can add me on discord flacks_ or message me on reddit
Also nothing is set in stone yet, so if you have suggestions, thoughts or ideas I’d love to hear them!
