Dutch Level 4
I reached Dutch level 4 on Duolingo, but then I discovered that, apparently, Duolingo did away with the graphics that show these specific milestones. Now, all I get is a more generic course completion graphic:

Conquered Dutch Skill Tree
I conquered the Dutch skill tree on Duolingo... again.
According to my records, I first conquered the skill tree on 22 November 2016. Here's a screen clipping of the trophy I got then, which is only slightly different from the current version:
Some time after I first conquered the skill tree, Duolingo updated the Dutch course. I lost my trophy (apparently because there were so many changes), and I had to do all of the new lessons they added before I earned it again.

Levels Update
Just now I got to level 18 Norwegian (I was only two points away, so I did an extra lesson), and when I confirmed that, I also noticed that I'd leveled up in Dutch. I'm now on level 21.
A couple years ago, I made a chart of what number of points corresponds to what level. The threshold for level 21 is 17,000 points. Since I have 17,028, I think I must have leveled up on Thursday or Friday. I didn't do any Dutch lessons on Saturday, and I did one (and earned 10 points) early this morning, so on Friday I had 17,018 points. But I can't remember how many lessons I did on Friday. Either I'd already leveled up on Thursday and did only one lesson on Friday or I did two lessons on Friday and those 20 points pushed me into the next level.

New Dutch Skills
Duolingo "updated [my] skill tree to teach [me] Dutch more effectively" to-day:
I'd completed the skill tree in November last year and was making pretty good progress in getting the skill tree all gold (I think I was about two thirds of the way there), but since Duolingo added all of these new skills, I was left with only seven gold skills. Seven out of more than one hundred.
In my screen clipping, Duolingo says I've completed two of five lessons in Basics 2, but when I did the third lesson, the other two filled themselves in and the whole skill became gold. This same sort of thing happened with German when Duolingo added new German skills a few months ago. It seems that Duolingo added prerequisite skills to skills I've already completed, but I have to do those earlier skills to regain my status in the later ones. So apparently I don't have nearly as much work to do as it seems, but it's still a bit discouraging because I was getting close to a completely gold skill tree.

Level 17 Dutch
Level 17 Dutch!
Last time I leveled up on the web version, Duolingo didn't give me a screen with a medal, so this time I knew that the best I would get is the "You've earned 17 lingots!" screen. The Dutch flag is at the top, which is at least some indication of the language.
