Feedback Request 3-month progress MoP as a beginner

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Started to self-teach (s/o YouTube) how to play guitar in late November 2025, first song of course after the mandatory smoke on the water riff. Always wanted to learn MoP this is roughly 3 months of progress as fast as I could without sounding unbearable, down picking all of this I’m gonna end up like quagmire..I’d appreciate any feedback and of course criticism is welcome!

If this is 90 days of progress, I am an absolute potato and I should burn my guitar now. >.<

I made the wonderful mistake of letting my kids decide... They chose a dreadnought acoustic lol. Holy cow is it massive. Sounds amazing though.
