If you're asking for video lectures or something related idk, but the Lyceum Institute does seasonal seminars on philosophical topics. They do a lot of scholastic and semiotic phil, with a bit of phenomenology. I'm in to all that stuff, though if you aren't you might want to go elsewhere

You definitely won’t be able to get a masters. Any online program for graduate school is a complete scam. For a bachelors I would look into local colleges and seeing if they have online classes you can take. You don’t need a degree to study philosophy though and, quite frankly, online classes probably aren’t going to provide you with a better education than what you can access on youtube.

There aren't good schools in my country honestly, so I was looking for some English-language international program. And since I already have a bachelor's degree in linguistics, I thought to major in philosophy for the master's as the undergraduate feels incomplete...

Why do you want to get a degree so badly? I don’t see how that accomplishes anything for you. If you have an interest in philosophy you don’t need to spend thousands of dollars for resources you could get for free online. It’s not like the degree will help you in any substantial capacity when it comes to your career. Being a philosopher is not defined by one’s certificates.
