There are some good sources on YouTube like Crash Course. The problem is when people get their information from posts or channels that are not peer reviewed.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Crash Course
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I didn't mean that there isn't any good information on social media. I have spent a bunch of time watching video lectures that MITOpenCourseWare has posted on youtube.
Using social media sites as a news aggregator is like looking at the news through a filter. I think that is bad because you don't know how the filter works and you don't control the filter.
