At the same time you have a major advantage by most of the internet being (language wise) accessible to you from the get to go.

I can just say that if I would have been able to speak english in my teenage years it would have majorly influenced my life in a likely positive but at least more interesting direction. Sadly back then I neither had any reasonable english skills nor was I aware of how much it would help me.

Through I guess by now it has become quite obvious how use-full english is (wrt. IT/CS).

I’m sure that it is better to learn English from a young age, yes. But as it stands currently, you have an advantage over me.
