Pretty much the title.

      Because they don’t know how good they are until they see them :)

        Yeah but… Brilliant has… a trial period. Seven days is plenty to realise that there’s next to zero educational value in that platform no matter how hard it is shilled online.

            Kahn Academy is neat. And free. I discovered it back when Brilliant was being shilled everywhere online years ago.

              KA is so much better than most of its competitors. At the end of the day, if something like Brilliant was so great, they wouldn’t need to use the same marketing strategy as Raid: Shadow Legends. Products that go hard on YouTube sponsorship are almost never worth it.

                This! A product doing sponsorships is an immediate red flag as to it’s quality. This has been proven time and time again.
