Personally, I find it really difficult to make progress without a rigid curriculum. There’s such a wide range of online content that I feel overwhelmed by the choices I have in what I should learn, which is why I decided to go to university in the end - I trust them to pick out the most relevant topics to my field of study. Although, to be fair, I do occasionally look at online courses so I can fill in some of the gaps not covered in lectures.
