Each site has its own plus and minus.
Lichess is the best for playing, but no GM training videos (because they would have to be paid, so free stuff comes with a price after all). But the GM Turtles are doing a very good show almost everyday.
I tried Chess.com, mainly for Chess Mentor which is an excellent tool but there are certain problems there that have been debated ad nauseam. And I can't stand a certain individual which is omnipresent :)
Chess24 have the best videos but you cannot download them. You have to use their interface which can be not practical and annoying. But they have the coolest and hilarious GMs/IMs. You can learn a lot with the Banterblitz and seeing how GMs think, and with the training shows. And you have Anna Rudolf...
ICC has the one and only Uncle Yermo, which is another treasure. I may get back to them only for that. But last time I was member, the interface was not ideal for my Mac.
