Languages on Lang-8
I want to learn a language with lots of resources, so I'm wondering which languages have lots of correctors on Lang-8.

Most of my Japanese posts on lang-8 were corrected within minutes, if that helps.

Re: Languages on Lang-8
Unless you already have an account, it is a pointless question. I've wanted to try it out recently, and couldn't, no more sign ups. Instead, they are launching some stupid chat up about languages. Sure, you can write there in a foreign language, if it is a question, but I highly doubt it will have the useful function of Lang8 there.

Wow, that's the stupidest development I've ever seen. I've had an account since forever, but...

Re: Languages on Lang-8
That's a disappointing development. I must admit I never really got the point of HiNative.

This post says new sign-ups are temporarily halted. Not much info. Hopefully they continue on.

Given the preceding responses about Lang-8's change of course, you might want to try iTalki instead of Lang-8. My data sample is quite small, maybe 5 or 6 requests in Spanish, but I got all corrections within 24 hours.

I stopped using Lang-8 for this reason. Works great for Russian too.
