I need to quench my thirst for knowledge and learn something new just for the sake of it.

I’ve already learned:

  • Equations and pivot tables in Excel

  • Vector graphics in Inkscape

  • Music mixing in rekordbox

  • Personal VPN on a raspberry pi 4 with OpenVPN

  • LAMP stack web hosting

  • Streaming & video capture with OBS

  • Manual & automatic backups with FreeFileSync

Things I’m open to:

  • FOSS (even beta) or free-as-in-beer software

  • A high or low learning curve

  • Tools for niche fields that I’d otherwise have no reason to learn

      Take it one step farther and learn podman and quadlets. It’s like learning docker/compose, but it’s also rootless if you do it from userspace.

          True, but I personally don’t see the point in adding a bunch of new packages to a system to make it work the way another system does when the migration process is minimal.

          Using podman compose, I’ve migrated multiple docker compose to rootless with basically no required refactoring until I made it a quadlet so it would always just run.
