Does anyone know what kind of plant this is?

I got this plant awhile ago back in December but I had no clue on what kind of plant it was. Back then then needles were soft and not crumbly like they are now. The color was also a bit more vibrant when I first got it. I didn’t know how to take care so that is why it died. I tried other plant apps but they we’re giving results that didn’t make since. I tried my best but I couldn’t figure it out. Does anyone have a clue?
