I’ve been toying with Udemy for a while. If nothing more it is a way to get content out to more people (even if it isn’t really a sustainable business model). The more I see content on YouTube and Twitch and Udemy the more I realize there is just so much stuff that isn’t based on any practical work experience whatsoever. It just keeps me fired up. I have quite a bit, but the people we really want to hear from are way too busy making amazing things to ever come up for air and produce a Udemy course with pretty graphics, write a book, or even fail publicly on a live stream working on topics together. It’s a damn shame really.
Anyway, the fact that Udemy immediately gave me that refund makes me wonder if maybe I could cleanup some live stream content and just throw it into a course there at some point. If nothing more it would force me to structure it more. There is a dire need for Beginner Boost content because all the existing content assumes you already learned Linux (to varying degrees without any agreement on what that actually means).
