I've been trying to find the information about how socialism has been tried, but its hard to find some solid information about the subject that does not have a strong capitalist bias. Apologies if I have failed in my search.

What do you mean by ‘succesfully’? Most actual socialist countries are under heavy sanctions/restrictions from capitalists, such as Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela. However, they do still provide affordable, and subsidised low-income housing apartments, schooling up to the University level without charge, and freely available healthcare. They also have a degree of planned economy, so unemoloyment isn’t all that high.
