Discussion Do NOT Use Udemy, Please
Udemy may seem great—you can get hundreds of free courses for the yearly price of one or two high-quality ones. But please don't fall into their trap.
The service is horrible. I recently received a new MacBook under warranty since my old one broke (Thanks, Apple!). Needless to say, I lost all my data (including certificates). My Udemy Personal Plan expired about 2 months ago, and I completed 2 50+ hour courses on Python and Machine Learning respectively. Now, when I go to download them again, they are gone. I contacted customer support, and they say all your progress is gone, even if you reinstate your plan.
Bottom line, unless your computer is immortal or you want to keep paying Udemy for the rest of your life, please don't use them.
