Open source language learning only has Anki. Everything else is in an enbryonic stage.
There are so many low hanging fruits. Add-on to look up words in subtitles and add it to Anki. Luo dingo clone that's a bit less tedious (without having to write so much of your native language). Clozemaster clone (unless someone knows how to set up Anki to do this)
I think Memento is open source. It's good for subtitles->Anki cards.
See I just started getting into learning another language and like most people I just downloaded Duolingo. But now on YouTube everybody recommends Anki. Over anything else I mean also immersion but like Anki is the go-to so I think Open source won
100% agree, would like to see more stuff in this space. Do you have any links to more "enbryonic tools". I recall seeing another tool awhile ago that I tested (can't remember the name) that worked a bit like LingQ. It would run a webserver and you could read links through it and mark words you didn't understand. I couldn't really get into a flow using it as tool to learn languages.
You're talking about learning with texts
It's not great for languages like Korean where you might have a lot of different conjugations that will be detected as new words
