Con Most courses are expensive
While Udemy does offer free courses, most of them are around $100.
Con Difficult to take multiple (10+) courses at the same time
The system becomes messy and hard to follow if you plan on using the site to learn more than a handful of things at once.
Con Teaches an operator that's about to be dropped
Swifty teaches x++ which is to be dropped from the language entirely.
