What ForumIAS Mains Marathon does well
A steady supply of questions and a place to post answers. Afterwards: a same-day answered post. For the habit of writing every day, that is most of what an aspirant needs.
Where it leaves you on your own
Write in the comment box; evaluation not stated. Most answers posted to a free programme are never read by anyone who could mark them, and comparing your answer with a synopsis tells you what you missed in content, not how a scoring answer was built.
