Hey Marc, I know language learning isn't easy, but it doesn't have to be so frustrating. Sometimes, you just need to know where to start. I wrote a story a while back on the matter in case you're interested.

I'd say 'go for it!'. Where there's a will, there's a way!

Yes, I agree. And I'd add to that. Read things at just one level higher than your proficiency. Not more! Because you don't want to stop from time to time to look up words. This is called extensive reading when you understand more than 90% of the material.

Love this! I actually just posted a Voronoi-like visualization as well: bsky.app/profile/luci...
Voronoi visualization of the estimated number of Romance #Language speakers. Spanish is the most popular Romance language in the world, with 475+ million speakers. Full story: medium.com/language-lab...

Wow! Italian is so beautiful. I could understand most of the things here because I know Spanish. Maybe I should give Italian a try at the end of the day!
