We all get bored sometimess and scroll mindlessly through various social media feeds, like instagram (fuck you), reddit (fuck you) or lemmy (no offense, love you guys).

Most of the time content is a wild mix of everything, from news to memes and educational stuff, and very hard to filter out.

Is there anything out there that contains educational stuff only? where you can just sit there, scroll through it and learn something. thinking of like a short text or image showing some facts, or some math examples, or physics, or whatever.

    Short-content pop-science video can’t teach eddy currents, empirical study of algorithms or even polysaccharides in general. Learning is not fun. It takes a lot of effort to concentrate. Articles and medium-length videos are slightly tolerable. Reading book adds to that difficulty.

      Learning is not fun.

      Well, speak for yourself. I enjoyed what I studied in both undergraduate and graduate school. 🤷‍♂️

      Also, my favorite class in high school was from a physics teacher that made things a ton of fun. I had so much fun in his class that I used to skip track practice and sit in his class for another period.
