No, the whole point is to keep it decentralised and anonymous. No videos. No KYC. I imagine something more like a guided process tailored towards each individuals needs and knowledge levels. Currently learning about Bitcoin is more of a try-and-see approach.

For whatever reason, I sort of started here, this bitcointalk forum. Maybe I read about it somewhere else, eventually this is the place where I signed up, spent a couple of months just lurking, and where I learned almost everything.

This forum provides some of those requirements: no videos. no KYC. almost anonymous (you can teach them how, and it's not difficult to create alts). But the forum itself is not decentralized.

The alternatives are decentralized platforms which run on top of shitcoin blockchains, such as on BSV (but they store weather data?) or ETH or EOS. I know a few, but it's another step or learning curve or something new to learn, and it's just going to distract them. I'm not sure about other decentralized or lesser known social media platforms, heard of mastodon or something.

IRC is probably the closest to decentralized, but not too many newbies go there, and it's more of a geek thing.

This forum is the next best thing. I think there is a "newbie" section, but I don't know the quality there now. I haven't been a moderator for awhile and like many here, I haven't wandered much away from WO thread. I do check a few others from time to time.
