I’d be interested in joining a community like this, but one where people explain things themselves, maybe even with experiments they did; or where people comment and compare different explanations found online – also to check their correctness. At the moment I only see links to (mostly) youtube videos. But then I can simply do a search on youtube myself. I wonder if this community would like to do something more.

This is just my opinion and a question, I completely understand if people prefer to do differently!

Moderators: please feel free to delete this comment if unimportant. Sorry for the outlier.

    You can post links, gifs, videos and or text explanations (or other formats if appropriate). If there are more aspects to the topic that you feel a single source doesn’t cover, you are more than welcome to post follow ups in the body of the post or comments

    In terms of individual experiments I feel like it would moreso fall under the context of a broader topic/explanation so you would be free to start a post with a general explanation and then start working out in the comments the details of experiments and bodies of data. If you feel that you or the source provides a sufficient explanation, feel free to put that as the main link / body content

    One thing I will probably update is to add [Question] tags as well

    Also for a bit of context, I used to run r/howthingswork and it didnt feel right linking gifs and content hosted on reddit directly or on gfycat since thats shutting down
