TIL solo learn is free but I paid 40 bucks for a course first

I got super frustrated with python for like 3 months. Kept watching YouTube but nothing stuck. Then a buddy at my library told me about Solo Learn, the app. I thought free stuff was trash so I ignored him. Today I tried it anyway after I saw a reddit thread saying it covers all the basics. Did 2 lessons in 10 minutes and it clicked way better than that paid course I bought. The little phone quizzes actually force you to type code, not just watch. Has anyone else been burned by paying before trying the free stuff first?

My cousin dropped 200 dollars on a bootcamp intro before finding out his local community college offers the same stuff for free on Fridays. The weird part is he still finished the paid one because he felt like he had to get his money's worth, which is honestly how I'd probably be too. Sticking with the free app and actually finishing beats paying and quitting, so you're already ahead.
