My fat fingers touch the neighboring strings on the fretboard, any tips?

So I'm a complete newbie. Got this guitar as a gift from this awesome friend.
But while trying to replicate the online tutorials, I got to realize that every time I press a single string on the fretboard, even if I'm pressing vertically, when I play the neighboring strings, they hit my finger.
This happens more when I'm pressing multiple strings on the fretboard.
Any tips or idea on how can I avoid this?
Also, how can I press three neighboring strings vertically at the same place, at that right spot, my fingers won't fit there and I can't seem to find any position to fit them.

Everybody Wants Some!! Guitar Lesson – Van Halen

In this Everybody Wants Some guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play this great Van Halen classic off of their Women and Children First album note-for-note.

The tuning is Eb standard. That is, starting from the 6th string, Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb.

"Everybody Wants Some" is definitely one of the easiest Van Halen songs out there. Eddie reigned in is his virtuosic technique to instead play some riffs that are incredibly catchy and an absolute blast to play. I will cover each one of these riffs in the order that each appears on the original recording.

Eddie throws in quite a bit of random noise throughout the song to great affect. You won't be able to recreate those noises exactly like he plays them, but we will talk briefly about how to come up with your own thing, which is how Eddie approached those sections live.

Even Eddie's solo, which I will cover note-for-note, is pretty easy to play. It incorporates a repeated melodic line played with octaves and given rhythmic life with the whammy bar dives.

Have fun playing this one, it is next to impossible not to! R.I.P. King Eddie! Carl...

LOOKING FOR HONEST/CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK from Beginner Guitar Players

Hi Everyone. I have contemplated posting this post for I feared it would come off as advertising, but it truly isn't. I am looking for some honest and constructive feedback on something I have really put a lot of time into and truly have a passion for that is something I am new at and wish to improve upon. I started a YouTube channel with the goal to create inspiring music tutorials.

I only have two videos up so far in a series which I believe will be 11 total. Since there are many in the series I am curious to know the following with the hope I can incorporate your feedback into the rest of the videos I still need to make:

  1. Is the format good? Am I presenting the material in the lesson in a good order?
  2. Does the video flow well? Is it too long, to short?
  3. Am I communicating the material in an easy to understand way? Am I being to simple or to technical?
  4. Are the thoughts shared in the practice tips helpful and inspiring?
  5. Do you think I should continue doing what I am doing or was this all a bad idea? Yes, I am putting myself out there. This whole process I must be honest is humbling.

Here is a link to the most recent video: https://youtu.be/EE6GfVvgez8

I want to thank you in advance for your time as I know it is valuable. Sincerely, Joe
