One of the co-instructors here. I 100% see where you're coming from. There's a lot of things that we cover in the course and spend a lot of effort in and there are other topics that are very important that we didn't include within the scope of the course (e.g. unit/integration testing).
To address the above, we've tried being as transparent as possible by highlighting the main focus points of the course in our landing page, showing the app that people will build publicly (https://tinyhouse.app), and providing a detailed syllabus page (https://newline.co/tinyhouse/syllabus) that shows every lesson we go through. We definitely want students and/or potential students to know exactly what they'll be going through before they even decide to dive in.

i am not sure about this course but the fullstack books (i think they changed the name to newline) are top notch. I learnt a bunch of technologies from those books and they served me well.
If I open my Instagram right now, I will see thousands of those courses. All of them making mistakes about what a masterclass is, all of them talking about "modern" stacks and lacking a lot of content.
To put into perspective: 2 of the 3 courses that I've enrolled missed the "how to put in production mode" part.
But don't get me wrong, I like what you are doing. It is just that I miss the "real advanced" part. All of them seems to teach the same thing, in the same speed.
