Dear HN community,

I am currently working on a redesign for a website that aims to communicate complex topics that build on a lot of science and research (sic., a website about effective altruism [1]). In this context, I was trying to think of inspiring examples that really communicate complex content well. Some examples that come to my mind are:

* Papers on Distill

  * https://distill.pub/2020/attribution-baselines/

* The key ideas section on 80,000hours.org

  * https://80000hours.org/key-ideas/

* Science videos on youtube from channels like kurzgesagt or beautiful science

  * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSKi8HfcxEk

  * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ-6rFEM2o4

Do you have other inspiring examples of website or multimedia content that made you interested in and helped you understand a complex topic well?
