I am not very new to HTML but didn't try to certify myself, till now. I stumbled upon FCC while looking for some Python courses. While the UI looked a bit clunky, I was impressed by some story and said I would give it a try. To cut it short: I was trying to pass as quickly as possible through the HTML challenge and see what was happening. I noticed the following:1. After successfully completing without mistake the first 10 or 15 tasks, a pop-up appeared asking for a donation. It was not a nice interruption.2. After the same amount of tasks, the same interruption. It happened like 4 times, during the first challenge. 3. The browser stopped working 4 or 5 times. 4. Everything worked a bit slower than expected. I admit I wanted to go as fast as possible... but... there were too many times when I was just waiting for the input form to be active... so that I can insert my tags., or whatever I was inserting... 5. By the last steps of the challenge (which I figured out were the last steps after some tricky thing happened/ read below) the donation pop-up appeared again. Again I pressed "ask me later"...6. By the probably very last step of the challenge, a new pop-up appeared asking me to complete another challenge. The only active button was "start coding" and there was no other possibility the escape that form/ window... 7. I pressed "Start coding" ... a new account (like number, number, number, letter, letter, letter, something) was generated for me, I was included in a new challenge, on the new account. All my previous effort was "erased". From my IP, now I can only access the new account.PS: I found the exercise instructions to be good and good enough. However, this aspect, for me, was not enough to simply not take into account the rest of the experience.
