Has anyone here achieved a n*tive level accent in their TL past puberty? Or knows someone who did?

Is it actually impossible, or does it just take a crap ton of work? To make things fair, I'm excluding heritage speakers because they grew up hearing the language. I'm curious about any stories you have.

  1. How much time did you spend focusing on your accent?
  2. Do you think it was worth it?
  3. What's your L1? Is the phonetic inventory similar to your TL?
  4. When did you start learning your TL?
