Advice and Resources for PbtA? (ttrpg.network)

I'm going to pause my 5e game for the month of July and try something else. I'm thinking about a PbtA game. I ran a few sessions of Masks years ago and it went okay. I'd never played anything that wasn't a d20 system and I remember feeling Masks was bending my brain a bit.

Do you guys have any suggestions for a quality actual play I could watch to try to get a handle on the system? Is there anyone out there that talks about PbtA the way a thousand people on YouTube do about D&D?

I was considering Avatar or Glitterhearts if it makes a difference, but I think that anything PbtA would help me.

Thanks. I did find an actual play Magpie did for Avatar and a few how to videos. There's a few for Glitter Hearts too, but there's definitely not much compared to all that there is for DnD.
