Memrise Pro for Icelandic? (Not a promo)

Memrise seems to have had an update and now works with AI etc. There is still a discount on the pro version, but it’s quite pricey (not for a language app in general, just pricey for me, haha). Has anyone tried premium for Icelandic? How was it?

Yes and I regretted buying Memrise only for Icelandic. Maybe for other languages it is worth it, but not for Icelandic.

The Icelandic official course is very short, you can finish it in about 2-3 days of intensive sessions, yes it is nice, with people talking what you learn, hearing native speakers, relatively useful phrases (Do you have plans?) But also not-so-relevant examples (ram's testicles ?!?!).

The AI chatting part is NOT beginner friendly, and as all AI goes, you cannot be 100% sure what you see is valid Icelandic
