For real, they can be a game-changer if you’re stuck in a small town. It’s like Hogwarts, but for everyone. :joy:

I dig them for the flexibility. I’m taking classes while chilling in my PJs. Who needs 8 AM lectures anyway?

But are they worth the money? Some of these courses cost like, a thousand bucks! :chart_decreasing:

Oh totally, but there are tons of free ones too! You just gotta know where to dig. It’s like online thrifting. :shopping_cart:

Honestly, it all depends on self-motivation. Tried and failed a couple because procrastination is my bestie. :sweat_smile:

Art courses online though… kinda sus. Need hands-on feedback, not just ‘draw this apple’ vibes. :artist_palette:

@artsy_owl Same! But some platforms do have cool ways to connect with instructors. Video critiques FTW!

And let’s not forget the community aspect. Forums and group chats help me not feel like a lonely potato. :potato:

Ever tried a cooking course online? They can be fire! But also, lots of burnt pancakes. :cooking::fire:

Tbh, the accessibility is unmatched. Courses on anything from quantum physics to memeology. :books:

Heard someone say they’re the ‘Spotify of learning.’ Unlimited knowledge at your fingertips. :headphone:

But what about the social experience? Kinda miss random campus meetups and library hangouts. :man_shrugging:

True dat, but virtual study groups can be lit too. Plus, you can mute annoying people, amirite? :joy:

Overall, I stan online courses, but they’re not perfect. Still, it feels like the future is just beginning for digital education! :rocket:
