This is true but I've also find myself at the other extreme more and more where I can't understand how to put together two or more pieces of technology and every article just goes over only the basics. For learning single technologies usually the documentation + some forum or chat to ask questions I don't know how to search because I don't know the terminology yet, is the best way to go imo. Also sometimes technologies just depend on other technologies (e.g. webpack, npm, git), it's hard to make a beginner tutorial on something like that. I think it's wrong if a tutorial that covers more than the basic case is marketed at complete beginners, but also as the one learning, you have to learn how to learn. 70% of tutorials or more that you find will be useless, either because the one who wrote it wasn't good at writing, or they're outdated, or they're just plain wrong. This is normal. Of the ones that are useful, some you won't even understand until later sometimes. Also what I find helps something click, is not always what helps others. For example, for learning languages I like youtube videos that quickly summarize all the syntax (because I already know how to program), but I can't stand "build x thing" tutorials usually because i'm just not invested in the project and anything that goes into too much detail bores me. But beginners would probably find a tutorial that includes installing things like git, npm, etc, priceless.
