I realize that while advocating for youtube learning with such ruthlessness I'm actually ironically pointing out why my life has no content.

I feel less desperate now and I stopped blaming my cheap gear for my lack of success. I only upgraded my telezoom to a 70-200/2.8 when I ran into a dim light problem regularly.
Now I mostly focus on the scene and the subject and nothing about photo rules, composition or gear technicalities. I only compose for what seems balanced in the viewfinder.
I got a better tripod since but I still don't take many astro shots.
Life is strange sometimes, it is better to just relax and go with the flow rather than worrying about it.
