So according to a voice on Forvo, 'augusti' is pronounced without the first U. What do you guys think?

Most people pronounce it like on Forvo, without the first U, but some people do say it like the Voice does, with an audible u.

Not caring about how people might say it, what should the standard pronunciation be?

Regarding the pronunciation of these months of the year, why is the "i" in the word "juli" pronounced differently than in "augusti" and "juni"?
Having no "Tips and notes" section on mobile is not very helpful.

lagolas2010 - Indeed, this TTS software female cyborg voice does pronounce all those ending "i's" in the same manner. (currently logged on the web version)
The one on the actual iOS/android exercise was different.

The comma used after the penultimate item in a list of three or more items, "gotcha".

Who needs this comma? I don't like commas, I would rather excluded them from languages at all

A comma delimited list can contain the word and within some of the listed items. Omitting the final comma can create an ambiguity. Duolingo doesn't observe commas though, so it does not matter here. You incorrectly used a comma in your comment, despite your dislike of them :)
