Youtube tutorial recommendations for an older lady getting started on MacOS 15? (self.apple_enthusiast)

She is 78 and thinks she is more tech savvy than the average person because she can check email, and use twitter and Facebook, and does a regular blog on Wordpress. She has been firmly entrenched (she thinks) in Windows since forever, but in reality she has very little understanding of how or why anything works the way it does, and has a very hard time adapting to change and remembering new ways of doing things.

MacOS has a Tips app that she might find useful.

Apple used to have a “new to Mac” page with helpful videos. So of course they got rid of it.

"Yeah, fork you for needing help" - Apple I guess.

Not like I spent 3 years of my life as a One to One Apple product and software trainer; because they got rid of that job also, apparently.
