Can't progress to V3s -- beginner

I've recently picked up climbing as a hobby (3 weeks ago) and I'm struggling to do the majority of the V3s that I attempt. I'm able to do V1s and V2s pretty easily, but there are specific techniques or tricks in V3s that I guess I haven't picked up yet (e.g. crimping, heel hooks, dynos). Do you folks have any suggestions or routines on how to improve and progress? How was your first experience with climbing? Edit: Thanks a ton for the advice! It seems I've been spoiled by my progression from v0-v2, so I was expecting v3 to take a similar amount of time. It seems that I'll need to think a lot more about these problems!

    The desktop web interface seems pretty similar to old reddit/rif so I haven't had that much difficulty with browsing. The fact that I'll be losing my niche subs is the hardest part of moving entirely to Lemmy though.

    One of my friends practices a similar thing called Kashima Shinryu! Yours seems super cool, it looks like it's descended from Miyamoto Musashi haha

    Seconded! This is a really interesting piece of sci-fi and it's a really good allegory of USSR and US relations during the time it was written. It's a pretty balanced take IMO considering that it was written in the 1970s.
