My impression is that for most native Asians, the English-speaking world is also their default source of non-native-language content. I have some relatives in China, and to the extent they do consume non-Chinese content, they consume English content. None of them consume enough of it to obtain near-native control of English though.
I’m curious, what kind of English content did you consume before you came across OB/LW? How typical do you think that level of consumption is in Russia?
