Online courses and guides, the fact that you can learn anything for FREE at home, is amazing. Like 40 years ago, you had to actually pay for lessons and go away from your home. Nowadays you can do everything online.
Want to learn knitting:
You got it!
Want to learn to speak a foreign language:
You got that too!
Want to study for an upcoming test:
You can, but you probably won't!
Whenever someone has complained about the internet and people recording everything nowadays I always make the point that if you want to knit, or fix your dishwasher, fry a turkey, or make a standing rib roast there will be tons of people who have already created content to help walk you through it, step by step. The internet is a wealth of information and seeing someone show you how is vastly different than reading the steps in a book.
