Complaints on Challenges

Don't you think that the challenges are so repetitive? As someone who has done quite a lot of JS challenges, I can literally memorise answers for each question. Come on SoloLearn, I'm sure Quiz Factory has a bank of unapproved quizzes to work on. Don't you also think that the challenges are too easy? 90% of them are like math-based. Seriously, how is this a challenge? var x = 1 ; var y = 2 ; x += y/2 , These challenges don't help us in learning imho. Like so that SoloLearn devs can see this.

Yeah! It's true!! I do agree...but don't u think that the Golden & Platinum ones should take the responsibility of posting nice quizzes onto Sololearn (Bronze & Silver ones also)...much of us only complain & do nothing for the community...so it's our turn now...:)

@Ahri Fox I'm sure I've seen lots of creative, non math-based quizzes there. The problem is SoloLearn relies on us rating them and refrains from approving unrated quizzes.

Also I found: a = 1; alert((a+a)+(a+a)); That's not programming. Much less contribution.

For some the quizzes are challenging especially if they're learning code for the first time, or refreshing after years of separation. Hey, take on the challenge of finding other ways to take g the quiz. This might sound stupid but try doing the quizzes while your phone is upsidedown, or take the quiz while looking at your phone in the mirror. You may know the answer right away but since it's timed you can take on the challenge of typing the keys correctly. Happy coding!
