I am a dinosaur myself. You have got to be careful. I trust people and they stab me in the back.
You can do it yourself without the help of others. Experience. You learn something complex without any resource back in the stone age. Imagine what you can do at the modern age.
You got YouTube, stack overflow, online documentation, communities. Use it to your advantage. You can triumph without them back in the day, imagine what you could do with their helps.
I am a php developer, and not using a single frame work (except WordPress), and have no idea about mvc. Like you said, WTF I need to create 3 files, when I can do the job with only 1 files 😂. But 1 day, I need to edit a Code Igniter Project, I got confused as hell. Then I decided, it's time. I watch YouTube and learn Code Igniter and Laravel in 1 fricking day. Even I surprised about my capability. It's about finding the right YouTube channel.
It's awefull to hear that people have betrayed you in the past. I have had some negative experience with that too. But thinking about that period; these people were not "my kind of people". I know it's sometimes hard to distinguish, but try to surround yourself with only the right kind of people. Trust them with something small and see what happens. If they handle it right you'll know they are good.
And yes, you can learn from youtube, stack overflow and all these great communities, but sometimes you are left with no choice and have to work with others. And you might as well let them help you and learn from them.
I have learned a ton from youtube (welding, machining, etc), but my experience is that having you explain something in person and being able to ask your own questions is so much efficient.
But then again; learning is something very personal and you'll have to figure out what suits you best :)
