Is sololearn becoming pay-to-learn?

The question is simple, is sololearn becoming an app where in order to do something you need to be pro member? Lately sololearn added some new courses in the learn tab. Very interesting if you ask me . . . One problem only, you need to be a pro member to follow them start to end. Look, I installed sololearn BEFORE it becoming a social network, back when it was only learn and code. I loved it because it was free and I could learn almost any language. Sadly nowadays it becomed a social network, with coding stories and pay-to-learn. I loved you sololearn, adios.

TheCheater494 The basic concept is learn coding for free but if you want to advance further getting certificates then pay $84.00 a year (or) follow the guys that already did and see what they are doing and see if you can adapt them in your projects. Sure you don't get the credit for the code coach solutions as the premium... nor do you get the certificates but that doesn't mean you loose out on learning.

In my opinion, the greatest power and benefit of SoloLearn comes from the interaction of the users, that is a really unique learning experience. This has not changed at all. The addition of some premium content is value added to an already great service, but if you don't want to pay for it, no hard feelings. The basic courses are still free and I doubt that would change. It is SoloLearn's best interest to keep a large active user base.

One month later, again on SoloLearn, I noticed that the pay-to-learn courses becomed a pay-to-skip course. Well done in my opinion, better than pay-to-learn and also better than free.
