I’m looking for people who are ready to lock in with zero distractions for the next 3 months.
Let’s commit to this roadmap and actually follow through.
Forget the AI noise for now. Focus on becoming solid in backend engineering and system design.
It might sound unrealistic, but you’ll be surprised at how much you grow by the end of June / early July.

The gatekeeping allegations are false btw, it's lazy and a cop out.
If you need mentorship, ADPList is there. We didn't always have that. Organise Meetups and invite designers that know stuff, not all of them will say NO
Flyers? CeaserGraphix has a whole channel on it, CAV organises classes all the time
Colors? Mary wrote a Book on it. You can study Obasola's work too.
Logo Design? Praise Philemon wrote a free book on the topic, Joe has a video on Boluwatife's Channel sharing technical processes, hell, there is even a pirated version of Sagi Haviv's Course floating around. Egbon Leye has a course that is just 5K
Pricing? Go and sleep on Chris Do's Channel, that's what many of us did
Typography? There's a basic course on it by TheFutur you can watch on YouTube, and there are books you can pull a Jack Sparrow on.
Brand Strategy? There's a basic course of it by TheFutur, you can pull a Jack Sparrow on, go and read Funsho's IG Posts from wayback
Design Practices and General Knowledge? Asa Coterie has courses covering Graphic Design, Typography, UX Research, UI Design
Illustration? Ufot has a course you can take, Chike does this replicate my Illustration thingy, Ufot has another one, OE Academies posts are still online
UI/UX: Egbon Evans has a presentation deck you can read. Refactoring UI is literally everywhere for you to JS
Design References: Elizabeth Goodspeed's Arena Channel is literally a gold mine; there are also Album banks, Instagram pages, hell, I curate stuff to my Pinterest and Share notion page all the time, and you can't tell me you've consumed them.
Type Design? Joboson exists, there's also typedesignresources.com
Creative Technology? Tim Rodenbroeker exists, hell join Chinese Twitter, you'll see P5.js codes flying around
Webflow & Framer? They literally have a university
Brand Design? Have you read Alina Wheeler? There's also a whole video series on TheFutur's channel that shows you what client interaction and the whole process look like. Geneza has a course on the topic. Have you studied DaDesign's Website? FourthCanvas? Pentagram? Porto Rocha? DixonBaxi? Andrew and Newson? Abel's work, Femi's work, Niyi's work, Fungi's work
Invoice and Contracts? Fungi has the resources on her website
How to hack LinkedIn? The video is literally sitting on my YouTube
So I ask again, what exactly are they gatekeeping from you? I wrote all of these from my head btw. Have you done enough research or paid enough attention to curate resources for yourself?
Presentation Design? Druids created a Google Drive that contains a course about it. Alex shared a template recently. Have you studied it? Have you also read " The Art of Presentation" Deck?
How many nights have you spent on Instagram, downloading designs to study them?
Nobody is gatekeeping anything from you; you are just lazy unless what you actually want is access to people who have their own lives. You want to be their friend; that might be your exact problem, but if what you need is resources, this is what is in my head now. Imagine what you can find on the internet.
Next time someone says "gatekeeping", you'll text me your address so I can come and slap your head lmao.
