Udemy sale is live: are these tech courses actually legit or just a waste of cash?

[Hrop]

Yo, Udemy's having another massive sale and I'm tempted to load up on some coding and blockchain courses. Is the quality actually solid or just recycled garbage at this point? Let me know if you guys found any hidden gems or if it's just a hype trap.

I've taken a few courses on Udemy and can vouch for some of the quality ones, like the Web3 dev course by Truffle Suite, which was actually pretty solid. On the other hand, I've also seen some super low-quality courses that just seem like people slapping together a bunch of outdated content. Definitely do your research and check the instructor's background before committing.

Nah, they're solid if you grab them for like 10 bucks, just check the reviews first. Great for getting your feet wet with a new stack, but you usually have to hit the docs or YouTube for the real deep dives.

Honestly, for like $12 they’re a total steal just to get the basics down. Just check the reviews first so you don't end up with some outdated 2018 content.

What's your take on market updates?

Total mixed bag, honestly. Some instructors are absolute GOATs while others just read docs at you. Wait for the $12 sale and check the ratings, otherwise you’re basically burning cash.

Honestly, it’s a mixed bag—some courses are total gems for learning dev skills on the cheap, but others just rehash free YouTube content. Definitely check the reviews and watch the preview vids before dropping any cash.
