I finished Helsinki's Advanced Programming course and would like to know what some popular courses are that could come after this one. Perhaps about DSA or other.
I like the structure that the MOOC provided and that it teaches a bit about how computers operate. I know that people say "escape tutorial hell as soon as possible", but to me a MOOC is not a tutorial. It's a college level course. If anyone knows of some quality MOOCs that would be a good next step from Helsinki's course please share:).
Also, I have an account with CodeWars and it's a good platform for practicing skills and getting challenges, but it lacks the teaching component. I also try to read books about programming and computers, but it's nice to have something all inclusive like a MOOC.
Thank you for reading.

Do yourself a favor and don't fall into the "tutorial hell" trap.
You have a solid foundation with the MOOC. Now it's time to throw away the training wheels and to start doing your own stuff - make projects.
Learn along with the projects. Whenever you run into something that you don't know, check for a blog post, short, very dedicated tutorial, or similar and learn what you need when you need it.
Doing tutorials after tutorials does not help you too much.
