You mentioned that you belong to both Guitar Tricks and Truefire, and that while you enjoy Truefire, you found their platform to be a bit overwhelming due to the vast amount of content available. Can you expand on how the learning experience and content delivery style differs between the two platforms?
I can chime in on this one.
I saw both sides. While I'm kinda new here at GuitarTricks, the key difference is that GuitarTricks wants to push you through a few groups of tailored lessons, which isn't a bad thing. But given the search is so limited, the first impression is that we don't have the same depth of content like TrueFire does. And navigation is a bit less intuitive here.
TrueFire, on the other hand, can be overwhelming, but it's more of a learning curve. There's really a lot there, and even more, now that they merged Jamplay, Truefire, and some ArtistWork content on the same website. But if you learn how to use the search, filters, etc, you always find something you are looking for.
It's a bit of a "putting blinders on a horse" mindset to keep someone focused here at GuitarTricks, and at TrueFire, they give you some education paths but have more of a "choose your own destiny" time mindset. I guess different people learn in different ways or maybe the stage of your learning.
I found this thread - Apparently, GuitarTricks is trying to get more transparency to tackle the competition.
