Ask HN: HackerRank, CodeWars, or something else?

Which of these would be the best to invest my time in? Is one more highly regarded than the other?

What's your endgame?

If you want to use this as a tool to get a new job, I'd recommend leetcode above all others.

If you just want a fun way to learn a new language's syntax, I enjoy grinding the easier problems in CodeWars.

If you're looking to get into competitive programming, I've heard good things about Codeforces, CodeChef, and TopCoder.

I personally like https://www.codeeval.com/. It's not competitive really, just solving coding problems. But I find it great especially for learning new languages or refreshing myself on old ones.
