This subreddit doesn't allow single exercises or partial work, as explained here, and as mentioned in this video from Lesson 0. You can however get feedback on individual exercises on the discord chat server, and the folks there would be happy to help you out. For the subreddit, we're pushing students to post complete lesson work.

For what it's worth, your start was rough but there's definitely a good bit of improvement over the set.

Hey thank you! I realize that now.

To give a little context for why I thought this was okay: I usually view subreddits based on top of all time first. There are a decent amount of posts like this from a few years ago. I'm assuming that's before the rules were changed.

I just wanted to tell you in case that seems to be a reoccurring issue. Anyways thanks again, your course seems amazing so far

That's entirely understandable. I kind of accept it as something that'll happen every few days, and so I'm used to sending the same message. That said, this is addressed in this video from Lesson 0 (in terms of the different places students can get feedback, and how each individual option operates).

Yeah makes sense, I saw that but forgot.

Anyways I just wanted to say I've come away very impressed with your community and how you manage things.

I'm going to be supporting your business on Patreon now. Both for the credit and just to support a good thing

I really like how candid and straightforward everything is. It doesn't feel like you're selling a miracle cream, it feels like you're selling tools to sharpen skills. It's a breath of fresh air. People seem to avoid selling anything that requires rigor, and yet it seems that's what helps the best
