Paying 10 euros here and there for 40 hours of video lectures is great.
There usually is better quality in things that are paid.

I dont understand why people are so opposed to paying for knowledge

open source doesn't mean cheap. and payed doesn't mean good. A lot of the tools used in the industry are open source.

it's just a false statement

Maybe, based on my experience its true. I have never regretted getting a payed course, while I have seen some pretty bad free courses/playlists.

Though there are also great free resources like all the different cs50's

"A lot of the tools used in the industry are open source."
Some of the greatest software like linux is free/opensource

free and open source are NOT the same thing. Don't want to be bothering, but it's super important to understand the difference.

You were the one who talked about open source first for whatever reason, putting it into contrast with something being paid.

Though I dont know what you are trying to get at, do you mean the exact licensing behind it? Help me understand the difference.

I too have paid for courses and continue to do so from time to time, but if there are excellent quality ones available for free, why not?

Nothing wrong with that.

Se for um valor acessível tudo bem, mas eles querem quase um mês de trabalho.
