I'm currently on 890 day streak learning Spanish, i can read tweets getting ~90% and understand slow Spanish speech.
I think i can have a basic conversation with a Spanish speaker and understand him, if he'll make some effort for us to understand each other.
Duolingo gamification stopped working around day 150..200 but by that time spending 10-15 minutes per day with it became a habit. If I have to wait for someone or I'm drinking tea in an idle mood, i just pop up Duolingo and do a lesson.
