I took French classes from 5th grade all the way through college and could speak basically zero actual French. For maybe six months now I’ve been doing about 20-30 minutes a day using the “Fluent Forever” method and I’m already able to converse with native speakers and watch movies in French. It’s really opened my eyes to how inefficient learning “sprints” are compared to small but consistent progress.

Yep, this is called the spacing effect and it’s really powerful.
