These kinds of lists are just completely worthless. Like ok, let’s look at “Stage 1 Elementary Stuff”. It’s a list of 18 books. So what are you supposed to do with that? Figure out which ones are good and useful? Take the next five years working through them all?

Either write a good guide, explaining why you pick each book, what it will teach you and why it’s needed, or just post a link to a university degree and say “just finish all these courses, good luck”.

You should checkout a YouTube channel called the Math Sorcerer. It's exactly what you are requesting. Some guy, who's passionate about math, who reviews textbooks and breaks down why you should be reading them.
