How long does it take to get good at cooking

I've been cooking for years now (at times, several times a week, but mostly it's very sometimes) and I don't feel like I'm getting good. I always hear that cooking is easy. How do I get on the level of a housewife's cooking [no homo]

Time and practice mostly. A little food science can take you a long way too, same with fresh ingredients.
Some stuff is down to equipment though like with baking it really helps to have a decent oven.

Find a chef whose recipes are simple and appealing to you and try following it their guidance.

What's difficult about cooking? You buy the ingredients, watch a YouTube video on the recipe, follow instructions and you get your food.

Don't take shortcuts, follow recipes to the letter and your food should come out fine. Maybe try planning meals in advance so you have everything you need?
 
Also just concentrate on learning on how to make one or two dish until you pretty much perfect them, its the small things such as cutting/whisking techniques, how mix different spice blends, not undercooking and overcooking food, once you get how they work you should be able to follow recipes much easier.

I learnt by not following recipes. I've nevrr used a recipe. I know how to make food (baasto, baris etc) but I want it to bang not just be ok
 
Just follow one recipe that looks nice to you. Make a simple pasta, rice or something basic
I know how to make baasto, baris etc but it's like a 6 or 7 out of 10. I want to get to that 10/10 housewife cooking status and sh!t on the non cooking xalimos

I've never read the books. I know someone who praises it
