I cannot understand how there are “larger infinities than others” no matter how hard I try.

I have watched many videos on YouTube about it from people like vsauce, veratasium and others and even my math tutor a few years ago but still don’t understand.

Infinity is just infinity it doesn’t end so how can there be larger than that.

It’s like saying there are 4s greater than 4 which I don’t know what that means. If they both equal and are four how is one four larger.

Is 1997 your birth year? If you have watched all those videos and still don’t understand, then maybe abstract reasoning is not your strength. The concepts are not easy, and you can function just fine without them. Nobody here is going to explain better than the Veritassium guy.
