Hey folks! I'm currently learning Python using FreeCodeCamp, but I'm starting to think that the material might be outdated. Do you think I should continue using it, or should I look for something more current?

Beginner material usually doesn't become outdated quickly, since most changes in programming languages don't affect the basics. But if you want something that's really up-to-date and practical, you might want to check out the MOOC Python Programming 2025 course from the University of Helsinki. It's free and gets great reviews!
I haven't used FreeCodeCamp myself, but I'm curious—what specifically do you think is outdated about it?
Honestly, I’ve never been a huge fan of FreeCodeCamp's content. It's okay, but for something free? It's decent. Most basic concepts you learn are pretty stable, so you could still gain a lot from it.
I've come across discussions on other forums where people mentioned that its material feels a bit behind compared to other resources.
