I’m an English teacher who wanted to “cut the cord” wherever I could, so I started learning about domain hosts, containerization, .yaml files, etc.

Since then, I’ve been hosting several pods for file sharing and streaming for many years, and I’m currently thinking about learning kubernetes for home deployment. But why?

If you aren’t in development, IT, cyber security, or in a related profession, what made you want to learn this on your own? What made you want to pick this up as a hobby?

    Liking computers in general and switching to Linux at 15 out of desperation.

    After that all it took was getting an shitbox pc as a hand me down to make me go “Linux is also used on servers right? Shouldn’t be too difficult to setup something.” And that’s how I got the bug.
