Got "invalid login attempt" after creating account and validating email. Once I'm logged in maybe I can give some more based feedback.
A priori, sounds good, solid idea and I don't think anyone can doubt that video based immersion is part of a healthy language learning diet. Question is, can it be the main course?
I've had a pretty similar path of learning English as yours so my main doubt is the following: I don't believe that the experience of a video game is the same as that of a video with social/cultural significance (those come usually only in your native language and in English) which are both quite different from "some" video on youtube. So it's a question of level of engagement with the content.
Having said that, I would like to see what other supporting structure you have / will put into place. Codifying vocabulary and grammar as well as written and oral practice will somehow need to be tackled in a "one-stop-shop" application.
Between quite a few really active users and the ability to follow hashtags I have had a very active timeline almost since day 1 in Mastodon.
To put it in comparison, I find it hard to keep up with the Masto timeline while my 6-hour best sorting starts quickly showing a ton of doubles (wouldn't it be great if we could somehow make them go away? )

My experience goes against this position.

What is it that you mean by that? Do you mind rephrasing your reply?
What makes you say that?
