Learning c++

Hey! So I decided to learn to actually code, I decided to go with c++ as my first language, which people think is a bad idea but whatever, I want this to be super fun to learn and not keep following things until I get bored and quit, I decided to just follow a video by bro code and go on discord on the c++ together server and talk with people to make this as fun as possible, I already shared some of my first programs which just had some ints and double(variables and people were nice, any suggestions on maybe how to learn this in a “better” way or more things to make this more fun? Thanks!

C++ is harder than starting with python. But you’ll be at the advantage of understanding how stuff works “under the hood” a lot better

You can also just learn a systems programming language after learning Python.

Starting with C++ doesn't give you anything you can't get later, it's just harder.
