Fascinating. The origins of the method are a real rabbit hole too, I kinda miss the era where stuff like this would crop up on forums.
For Spanish I‘ve been on a hour-a-day schedule combining reading a novel on lingq, duolingo (which is a handy review tool if nothing else), and verb form flash cards. I do plenty of extra stuff outside of that, watching shows and podcasts in Spanish, but the 10 hour a day timeframe advocated by the original L-R sources is definitely intense.
Anyway, thanks for the write up! Some great sources here for sure.
I had never heard of the L-R method before, it's kind of astonishing that it has worked for folks. I suppose LingQ/LWT combines some of these approaches together --- it's hard to imagine doing 10 hours of LingQ reading though.
Truly there are few things better in this world than seafood + noodles + sauce

Unfortunately I think it'd be complicated as far as moderation goes, because posts would have to be moderated across instances by different mods.
