I am not (nor have ever been) a member of their community, but my opinion is much like that of snippsat.
Closed community with paid membership is quite in contrast with Python's core philosophy. Bluntly put, to me it is simply one of Dan's commercial products. Besides, I can't see how any other Python forum community could be better than python-forum.io (personal opinion!).
And again I agree with snippsat - Dan Bader's free Python content is nice. I also got his Python Tricks book when there was a good HumbleBundle Python books deal.
