Toki Pona is fun. A language with only 137 words, learnable from scratch within weeks. Though it's interesting to see just how ambiguous everything becomes with this ultra-small vocabulary.

It sure beats Ithkuil! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ithkuil On a related note, I’ve just started learning Indonesian, and it’s refreshingly simple (at first) after trying Mandarin. No gendered nouns, no plural form, no verb tense or conjugation, phonetic pronunciation, Latin alphabet, consistent spelling, etc.

What motivates you to learn new languages? Could instant translation tech make knowing multiple languages less useful in the near future? Is it more just for fun or as a means to understanding other cultures than as an end in and of itself / something with expected long-term utility?
