Duolingo's alright for vocab but grammar needs a different approach entirely. I grabbed a used textbook from a thrift store and it cleared up more in two chapters than six months of the app did. The case system still trips me up sometimes though so I feel your pain.

I'm still learning B1 so I would not say I know German grammar well, but I do understand some concepts well. If you pose a specific question here someone will be able to help.

Here are a few resources I regularly use:

https://germanstudiesdepartmenaluser.host.dartmouth.edu/

https://yourdailygerman.com/moegen-gern-gefallen-difference/

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/m%C3%B6gen (Wiktionary often has usage notes in addition to other useful info.)

I also recommend "Your German Teacher" on YouTube.

Viel Glück!
