I'm European, I paid 500 euros per year, and that included laboratories and everything.

I really don't understand your argument here. Just because you think it's a fair price doesn't mean it's a good price for me.
FYI I used to spend 40/50$ per hour of algo and ds lessons in the past, or I pay 20$ for french classes and a similar price for chess lessons, all of those over zoom/teams/meets.
I'm not against paying for education, but I don't see the value of a 30$/month membership to do these courses.
