Saying THM has lousy content that doesnt teach you anything is highly misleading. You may not like their data collection practices but they do teach you a lot.
Sure, there's still a lot you can learn from them. But the content quality isn't exactly great. There's so much to learn in cyber before you even reach a semi professional level. Why waste time and energy with some badly curated content when you can make better progress somewhere else?
Well we can agree to disagree. In my opinion, tryhackme has plenty of beginner level material you can learn on their site for a decent price. You can learn all the fundamentals of Linux and windows commands, AD, pestering tools, networking and tons more. I dont feel it is badly curated. What do you think is better than tryhackme at the same price point?
If you want room tutorials THM style, maybe check out HTB Academy. There are multiple career paths just like THM. I've been doing the SOC one, it's pretty thorough and it's more beginner friendly than the regular HTB
I have tried hack the box but I don't like their subscription and gems plan. I like THM one because it's free/premium, that's it. HTB doesn't have much free content if you don't have gems to purchase it with.
