System Design Primer on GitHub

Is it just me who finds the content abysmal? The "solutions" seem horrible and I am curious if anyone would pass a design round doing exactly the same as the solutions. What do you guys think?

For me, "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" was a much better resource for system design prep.

Use SDP as a starting pointer and DDIA as the go-to reference.

I posted about that a few months ago. It’s an absolute joke. Facebook recruiters sent it to me to help me prep. More like help me unlearn. Then a bunch of blinders swarmed in to tell me to listen to Tushar and Gaurav on YouTube and at that point I felt like I’m living in bizarro world. The sad part is that many of your interviewers won’t know much more.

Could you please point out some proper sources to learn system design for those who don't work on systems with thousands of nodes and millions qps? No sarcasm, pure curiosity.
