Did treehouse switch some videos/ workshops / etc into pro

I've just noticed some old videos i've watched in the past i now can't saying i need a pro account. So did TTR switch videos to pro all of a sudden to trap ppl to upgrade their account?

On the javascript library a few workshops that were available for the basic membership now requires a Pro account.

For example this course says it's open to the Basic but when clicked it hits me with a Upgrade to watch it. Even though it's say i've completed the course. https://teamtreehouse.com/library/using-the-geolocation-api-in-javascript

Has anyone else seen this?

Yes, some workshops and courses have been moved from the Basic account to the Pro account. To my knowledge, this happened around October 3rd according to an email I received from Treehouse. This is not your imagination. Hope this helps! :sparkles:

This is extremely disappointing. I just today noticed the "Pro" courses after recently re-enrolling. Many of the courses I looked forward to taking and thus re-enrolled for I see are now "Pro" (especially newer Swift courses). This is particularly disappointing because I'm at the point where most of the things marked Pro are what I would consider my next steps.
