as someone else mentioned language transfer is a really, really good resource that helps learn in a really naturalistic way, highly recommend
there's an plugin for netflix, if you have it, that can give you subtitles in spanish and english which is pretty cool.
duolingo gets a lot of hate but I think it's pretty good for brute forcing some vocabulary
for Anki, I recommend that instead of using someone else's deck you create your own when you encounter words youre unfamiliar with, you will be able to commit words to memory easier if you have some kind of connection with them or reason to do so than if its just randomly 1000+ words you encountered in someone else's deck.
various podcasts are pretty decent but I tend to bounce around. Duolingo's podcast, Doorway to Mexico, News in Slow Latin American Spanish, and coffee break spanish, are a few beginner friendly ones i listen to.
Mandarax and Las Raras are a couple more advanced ones that are good to.
edit: Oh also this person's channel is really good for accent reduction and he explains spanish pronunciation really well imo
yeah I don't listen to it anymore but when I was an absolute beginner it helped bc anything remotely approaching normal speech just sounded like a long unconnected stream of unintelligible sounds lol.
Duolingo's podcast and some of the others ended up being more useful for longer but since op is just getting started I thought it might help a bit

I found myself frustrated with News in Slow Spanish. I wanted "slower than normal Spanish", but got "slower than English"

there are plugins where you can add extras to the cards like audio or links to a youtube vid with pronunciation or whatever.
MIA editor and dictionary are 2 plugins for anki that are good.
