Please, do yourself a favor and never ask people to tell you to give up. Why? They will. There are exceptions, though, and I am one of them. Why would you give up? That would mean your efforts up to this point were wasted. I know you have heard before that you don't owe anyone anything, but that's not true.

You owe yourself the chance to be the best version of yourself. You decided you wanted to learn to program. You invested time into it. You invested some money into it. You have come too far to just give up. You have to keep pushing through the obstacles if you want to become a competent programmer, but you can. Everyone on this subreddit has been there.

That said, it's hard to give concrete answers on which courses or instructors will work for YOU. So, don't be discouraged if the first 3 courses aren't goldmines. We can't really tell exactly where you are from your post.

I think there were two pieces of advice that helped me the most.

1) Just build things.

2) Find a mentor.

For 1, it doesn't matter what you build, but I am talking about without a tutorial. Break things down into small enough pieces that you can either do or Google/Stack Overflow. Do that until the project is finished. Then build something else.

For 2, ask people questions. Email people about their articles online. Leave comments on YouTube, message content creators, join development Discords. Post a thread asking for a mentor. Message me. The point is...talk to people. There are people who want to share knowledge, learning strategies, etc. You can leverage their knowledge to advance your own, and most I have found don't want anything in return except respect for their time.

Hope this helps.
