I take all my conlang opinions from jan Misali aka Conlang Critic and he tells me to love toki pona [0] instead of lojban [1]. [0] ▶ this video [1] link
If anyone is interested in learning about conlangs, jan Misali has an interesting playlist[0] with reviews on various contructed languages including Toki Pona. [0]: ▶ this video
Conlang Critic is a fan of this language: ▶ this video I highly recommend watching all episodes of their show if you like an idea of short text based video essays about constructed languages: link
