I enjoy the videos Angela Collier (npub1xzw…l6gs) makes, but I think that at least the ones I've seen are designed to give you some high-level idea about some topics but not to systematically teach you physics in detail. And while they're interesting, I think a lot of times the understanding you feel like you have from a video like that is illusory, because to really understand the topic you have to go into a lot more detail, and you have to apply your understanding to work through problems yourself as you learn. Indeed, I think that point was sort of made in her video "why you can't explain QCD."

The good news is that if you're really interested in putting in the sort of work needed there are multiple open source textbooks and open courses available to you online. [@j_bertolotti](https://mathstodon.xyz/@j_bertolotti )
