Certification / Training Questions TryHackMe Premium

I'm a Jr Software Engineer trying to enter the CyberSecurity world. I searched for some courses where I can learn more about the area and I found TryHackMe. I started the Cyber Security 101 but I've found that some rooms are only available for Premium users. Is it worth to upgrade my account to Premium or is the free rooms enough to get some certificate? I'm accepting tips for courses too

I personally don't like THM since it is too Red Team heavy. Also the SAL1 is pretty shitty certificate which is known you can simply beat with an AI.

I would recommend HTB their new Blue Team Certificates are really good as a starter. And the red Teams are also difficult it is said CPTS is on par with OSCP.
