If SoloLearn is a company big enough to afford those charges, there would have been at least 50+ free/paid courses and many more features by now. But, SoloLearn is a small company and they are doing the best they can.

@Trump @Jacob As to the captcha limitation, there are auto solvers and paid services to get around it. But challenges are not present on the website. So it must not be possible right? Phone emulator. Next, screen capture which will feed into the script, and be fed into text detection (of which there are a few ways I know how to do). If it's a "what is the result of this code?" then the text will be ran as code, an the output would be inputted with a library that can do clicks and typing. But what about questions not like that? Well the next step is searching Google and Stackoverflow. I don't know how this would fully work for finding awnsers, I would figure that out when I get there, but actually searching questions should be a breeze programmically. If it gets the wrong awnser, perhaps it would save a snapshot of the question, saved into a database, to be later figured out by a human. Sure, that's not fully done by automation, but it wouldn't matter so long as you're getting money in Trumps scenario. Anyways, it could look to the database of awnsers to get questions right. Slowly, it may even archive most awnsers, allowing a easy high winrate. Most funnly, you could even try training a neural network to awnser questions, though I think it won't be as effective. I know how to do all to do everything I said. If challenges mattered at all, maybe I would build it. As is, xp is useless to me. Maybe someone else could try this, though I warn it's against the rules. So uh, don't do it.

I'm afraid SoloLearn will have to "charge" us somehow to make it happen, either by ads or other ways to finance the challenge reward. Not a good idea, I like it as it is now, free ;)

@Ahri Cool. Thanks for sharing. I'll have to try making a bot sometime. It sounds complicated, but I think that it could be achieved with continuous work (including sleep) within a few days.

@Ahri How would you make a bot that could use code to enter values into fields? Would it be simple and I'm just overthinking it, or would it actually be complex?

I think it would be better if Sololearn would charge one dollar for every downvote you give, and half a dollar for every downvote you get. It would certainly clean up Q&A. And it would give the moderators more time for what they are good at, helping people with coding.

I wasn't very serious. Though I would like to see an app like this working without the need for moderators.
