I use Udemy a few times a year. The instructors are terribly under-paid, and the content is typically very high quality but low depth. It's great for picking up a new skill to a useful degree and getting you ready to continue learning more in-depth material elsewhere.
Eg, great for learning a technology or programming language, but often not great for advanced features of that language.
Whenever you can, use one of the instructors coupon codes prior to buying a course, otherwise the instructors only get about 27% of the money [1] (or less if it's on mobile due to app stores), which is why I decided to not make a game-programming course a couple of years ago.

- tmaly 4y ago+1 for this. I made a short udemy course. It took me about 3 months in my spare time. I have only made $3 so far after 6 months. It is a labor of love to teach.
