I took the Duolingo Russian course for shits and giggles and cleared it in a couple of days via those 'take a shortcut' options. It's an OK introduction to the language but unfortunately won't get you very far. The problem with apps like these is that they only give you a narrow peak into the language and test what you've learned in a very discrete and limited way. That, and the quality of their limited material kind of sucks sometimes.

I'd start with a basic textbook, this is the one I used in college. You can probably find a used one for a reasonable price. Though I used it in conjunction with a class professor, It's formatted incredibly well and comes with a CD, so self-use shouldn't be too difficult. If you're looking to spend zero money, I stumbled upon this youtube channel with some decent instruction. If you want to stay mobile, I'd recommend the app Memsize over duolingo due to the shear volume of content they have available in comparison.

You can also, of course, ask for help in this sub. There user base here is incredibly kind and helpful. Feel free to ask me anything of you want as well.

SPOILERS: When you complete the Duolingo course all the app gives you is a crappy bird medal on the bottom of your lessons list.

Don't bother going with Rosetta Stone. It will be pretty much 95% useless to you, as you already understand everything. Rosetta Stone puts next to no emphasis on grammar.

You may find this book useful. It was used in a first year Russian course I took back in university and has plenty of exercises to get you learning grammar, the alphabet and even how to read/write cyrillic cursive. There were many students in that class in pretty much exactly the same situation as you who seemed to find it helpful.
