 It’s all one big church with an insane amount of infighting 😅

 As a recently recovered Catholic (few more than a year), if I may suggest you, focus on reading the scriptures, History of the Church  and the writings of the early Church Fathers, stick to the sacraments, especially Confession. Do it for real. Prepare with a deep conscience exam, repent and go with a contrite heart.
More important: STAY OUT OF POLEMICS.

Jesus changes our lives, but it's quite easy to fall if we don't keep improving our spiritual life.

Read the saints' life and chose one you identify the most to inspire you (mine is St. Augustine).

History of the Church by Daniel-rops is probably the greatest and trustable historical source. It's a 10 volumes collection.

If I may suggest also, read the Catechism of St. Pius X. It's the most direct and objective for new converters.

Unfortunately I'm not able to recommend social media sources in English, but if you're Catholic, stick to Catholic sources.
 

May peace be with you
