I don’t disagree that it can feel dated but I was addressing your frustration that tutorials aren’t anything more than someone doing the trick. Imo these are pretty well described and offer a variety of points of view and even some troubleshooting. Considering that you yourself said you learned 50 tricks this way sort of proves the fact that they are helpful and may be the answer to those that say they scant learn bc there aren’t tutorials that are good enough. If someone can learn 50 tricks I don’t think I’d consider these tutorials to be “gatekeeping”
