Love the simplicity here. How long did it take to build? And does it support German subtitles yet?

Hey, thanks! 🙌
The first working version took me about 2 days to hack together. Then another couple of weeks to make it actually usable without embarrassing myself.
And yep — German works just fine! 🇩🇪
Right now I'm focused on making it play nice with more video players out there. If you stumble upon one where it breaks, definitely let me know (please!). Always looking for stuff to fix.
Heyyy, congrats on the launch! Quick heads up, the Blog link in your nav is broken. Might want to fix that today while you're getting traffic from Product Hunt.
@sosna Thanks for pointing out this issue. I'm working on fixing it right now.
I am so bullish on ways to improve language learning. When I lived in Mexico for a year I always watched Mexican shows - with subtitles. I loved it bc it helped me learn slang, improve pronunciation, and learn to speak more natively vs. what we learned in Spanish class.
I'm supportive of tools just like what you've created - we should all speak multiple languages! Good luck

Love hearing this! Your Mexico story is exactly the problem Sublern solves - real language happens in real content, not textbooks. So glad you see the vision. Thanks for the support!
