A guy on YouTube told me to learn C# first and I think that advice is trash for beginners
Last Tuesday I was in the break room at work and this guy I barely know was watching a video where someone said new coders should skip Python and learn C# right away to "build good habits." I tried that exact path back in January. After 6 weeks I could barely make a console window print a name, and I quit for a month because it felt like homework. Then I switched to Python and wrote a tiny program that renames my files in about 20 minutes. Beginners don't need a hard language to look serious, they need a win in the first week so they don't quit. What did you start with, and did it make you want to keep going or throw your laptop out the window?

Isn't six weeks of struggle worth it if C# pays better later?
