How am i supposed to learn C# ? (lemmy.zip)

I have some background in Python and Bash (this is entirely self-taught and i think the easiest language from all). I know that C# is much different, propably this is why it is hard. I've been learning it for more than 4 months now, and the most impressive thing i can do with some luck is to write a console application that reads 2 values from the terminal, adds them together and prints out the result. Yes, seriously. The main problem is that there are not much usable resources to learn C#. For bash, there is Linux, a shit ton of distros, even BSD, MacOS and Solaris uses it. For python, there are games and qtile window manager. For C, there is dwm. I don't know anything like these for C#, except Codingame, but that just goes straight to the deep waters and i have no idea what to do. Is my whole approach wrong? How am i supposed to learn C#? I'm seriously not the sharpest tool in the shed, but i have a pretty good understanding of hardware, networking, security, privacy. Programming is beyond me however, except for small basic scripts

Java and C# are very similar, worst case scenario learn Java, then C# will be easy.

C# is very powerful and object oriented programming language that help us to make web application, desktop application, games, client server application, mobile application. But many other programming language does not provide all these features in one programming language. If one support mobile developement but may it will not support web development or if one support web development may it can support desktop developement. But C# is versitle language that also run on different platform very easily and friendly. C# also support small web application and software to till large web application and enterprise software. So https://c-sharptutorial.com/ is an complete site for learning C# tutorials with real life examples.

Jumping from loose-typed language to strict-typed language will be hard.

It's also a matter of your general programming experience. Once you write, like, ten thousand lines of meaningful code in Python, learning C# should take you a month or two at most, you'll know most programming concepts and algorithms intrinsically, and the rest is just learning syntax.
