Hey, thought I'd share my findings here.

I don't use just one source but rather lean on several, as each fits my schedule some way. Like listening to audio lessons when I'm out, etc.

I have Easy French Step by Step for the book approach. It covers the ground well enough in and of itself, but I make a habit of looking up expanded explanations online.

For pronunciation, I seem to like Lexie's videos, particularly the one about French Rs. She makes some excellent points that help you avoid beginner mistakes (like stressing your Rs in an unnatural way).

For tests, I use the textbook ones (+asking ChatGPT/Gemini to review my work), as well as https://www.francaisfacile.com/. After finishing a test, I'll often ask ChatGPT to branch out and create some more test sheets for me like those I'd just completed.

For audio lessons, I would recommend https://www.languagetransfer.org/courses#french. It's not very deep but it's right up my street with semantic decomposition — drawing the obvious parallels between French and English; going into word origin, helping understand how French builds words.

A bit of a mishmash and I feel like I could've just posted links but they helped me get started, and I thought I'd share them with you if you're looking for the same kinda stuff.

(woops, edited since i accidentally pasted a steam store link in the first one. -.- apologies)
