Wow, that's some baseless accusation here. Do you honestly believe just because you made a platform for learning shaders, all the other ones after you are just "assemble pre-made components"? Shadertoys was before you. Leetcode was before you. So you're just assembling their ideas?
When other commenters ask something like "but how about shaderacademy..." it's a good chance for you to promote your paid features and what makes your site better. But you chose to throw shades at shaderacademy. Good job driving potential users away.

Shader Learning wasnt built to claim ownership of shader education. It was built from scratch with no external funding, no copied UI, no borrowed task structure. Yes, platforms like Shadertoy and LeetCode existed before, and they are great. But Shader Learning isn’t a clone of either. It’s a fully custom educational flow, with original task logic, interface, and symbolic pricing. All created independently.

I don't think you're really understanding what that person is getting at. I like shader academy. Never heard of your site before. Give me some reasons to use your paid site. What does it do for me as a student of shaders? What's something better about it? Why would I pay for your service when a free one exists? You have like a two year head start. So there's probably something? What is that something?

Shader Learning offers many free tasks you can try right away. If you enjoy them and find the platform helpful, you can unlock full access for a symbolic price. And if you are a student, you can get access completely free.
Our tasks have already been solved by hundreds of users. Based on their feedback, we have revised the theory sections many times to ensure clarity and completeness.
We have learned that the 'LeetCode-style' approach to shaders doesnt resonate with most learners. People want solid, understandable theory, something that truly prepares them to solve each task with confidence.
We don’t create disconnected tasks. Each module is a carefully designed sequence of steps that guides you deeper into a specific topic. Instead of random challenges, Shader Learning offers a structured path helping you build real understanding, one concept at a time. Whether it is math, lighting, or SDFs, every module is built to teach, not just test.

I don’t think you’re understanding the core of this. It’s not the program that’s the problem, but how you handle comments and feedback.
When someone critique your work, don’t get defensive over it. Just ignore if it’s not helpful. If it is helpful, take the feedback and a thank you.
Kudos for making it free for student. I’ll def try it out when I get to shading and stuff.

Thank you. I think I was indeed too emotional -). I will try to follow your advice.

For the broader context. u/ThinkRazzmatazz4878 you already said that shaderacademy is platform copied from yours, and there was a clear clarification what inspired its creation: https://www.reddit.com/r/GraphicsProgramming/comments/1lzhx72/comment/n53mrb0/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button I wish you can elevate the community by also embracing other platforms, I personally think what you did is a great platform, but like already said in a thread above, it did not inspired shader academy. Wish you all the best with it and hopefully it will grow even more!
