3Blue1Brown's linear algebra animations were fun to watch but they did almost nothing for me except the basic fact that the "linear" part means lines.

The rest was effectively preaching to the choir so those that already know linear algebra nodded their heads and idiots like me were still flummoxed

That's interesting. I do think 3B1B's goal is probably to build better intuitions in people who already know it.

Yes, those lectures are good enough for intuitions only. For practice one has to read books. I just hope the viewer knows that. Which I have seen is absent among some people.

Yes. 3Blue1Brown has himself said multiple times no videos is substitute for text books.
