Priority to get maximum of members count, despite of quality of learning and content... Dumb challenges, just made to make users addicted to app just for getting XP rather than acquire knowledge ^^

courses are very shallow. When learning a lesson they app keeps annoying you with prompts like ' want to learn faster, invite a friend' or 'do you like the app, rate us'

Yes there are, here's an example of one. Example (Sololearn): Sololearn = False Negative = Sololearn is False print("Sololearn is a " + str(Negative) + " app!")

You don't get actual experience programming. It isn't their responsibility to give you that though.

Input in non-web languages. At least I can't see their description what to input without looking through the code beforehand. A text adventure like they presented in the Python course isn't possible to play on Sololearn for example.

Lack of syntax highlighting in challenges as well as challenges that are poorly written (bad coding practices). And while I'm not a newcomer to programming, I did still learn a few things I didn't know before, but I'd like some advanced content
