I signed up and paid for both (datacamp and dataquest) for a full year. and then canceled. I learned, but nothing stuck. I also did Codecademy and freecodecamp. I learned (and retained) much more from those.
I also signed up for Coursera plus, but it was a bad idea. Because of the all-you-can-eat thing, I signed up for a bunch of courses at the same time and tried to juggle them all, but in the end, I couldn't finish even one course.
One other thing I learned. It's impossible to master everything. You have to focus on a select number of topics and deepen your expertise in fewer areas rather than acquiring shallow knowledge in a wider area.
