I have a YouTube account that I use only for Spanish language videos (to help learn Spanish), and saw this. Translates to: "China is already living in 2050 but, at what cost? This is Shenzhen, the city of the future."

I really need to get started learning Mandarin and hope to god "at what cost" isn't a thing there too

Yeah for sure. For a while I did nothing but watch Spanish videos during all my free time. I'm gonna take an exam in the next year or two hoping for C1 level and if I get that I will really start looking at Mandarin.

I'd definitely be doomscrolling 小红书 and calling it language study though lmao
