Veritasium did a great presentation on the different voting systems and there really isn't a perfect one, but first past the post is definitely not even close to the "best".
Since I don’t like Veritasium, I’ll suggest the CGPGrey videos:
He does great videos as well.
Veritasium didn't really give the full picture though. He was only really looking at rated based voting systems, but there are more systems out there than that.
I would assume it's the worst. The only thing it has going for it is that it's easy to understand.
It's no "throwing birdseed at your candidate of choice in order to attract the freedom eagle to them".
