Plus:
Brilliant’s computer science courses cover slightly more than my actual software engineering degree from Aberystwyth university, and their maths courses cover more than I did at A-level.
The various introductions to matrices (in different contexts each time), are better than the introduction I had in my A-levels (with a good teacher!), and I would say they are of comparable goodness to 3blue1brown. Only, all of it is that good.
If you get stuck because a topic assumes knowledge you don’t yet have, they have a course to teach you what you need to learn.
I can’t comment on the levels of Brilliant’s physics, chemistry, or biology as I have only GCSEs in those subjects — but I can say they’re well-described and engaging.
Negatives:
Limited practice materials, e.g. I still suck at probability because I’m not groking the broader implications of their simpler lessons.
