lichess has a lot of good free opening courses. chess.com has a lot of videos but you have to buy a subscription. Gotham Chess on YouTube is entertaining.

Gotham Chess is entertaining, but Levy's not doing so much beginner content these days. I like Eric Rosen's "speedrun" series. He's got an authorised speedrun account on chess.com (meaning that his opponents do not receive a penalty for the games) and he has a very calm style and takes time to explain the positions. Very educational.
Levy's old stuff still holds up IMO. Rosen is also definitely good. Also the St Louis Chess Club YT channel is usually great if you're looking for something that's very in depth and don't mind watching 60-90 minutes of content.
Eric Rosen is like the Bob Ross of chess.
