You really don’t.

Just go outside.

Dear god.

Oh god no, not Salesforce. No no no.

All of our other products.

Speaking of cool projects; build a lemmy app. It can be console app for simplicity.

Not a bad shout. I see wefwef is a webapp. That could be worth exploring.

Thanks.

I’m not giving up a 20+ year career in IT just because I haven’t yet found a way to learn how to code.

There’s more than one way to teach a subject and it would be nice to have even a basic understanding of the mess I am supposed to be supporting,

My biggest problem is figuring out what I want to do with any coding skills. I have none, by the way, and I don’t even know where to start.

Some of the usual responses when I state this:

“Automate your work” - I work in Salesforce. Have you seen Salesforce? I’m not a multi faceted systems administrator constantly updating DNS records or working in Active Directory.

“Write a cool app” - What cool app? What is “cool”?

“Open dev tools and look around” - Why? Specifically, why?

Also, learning programming is BORING. Most of the courses I’ve tried are so so stale and they aaallll end up explaining concepts in the same way.

“This is a fleeble and it holds the sping, the sping tells the plus plus that it must do what the herbug says”.

I’m not alone.

Compute was never an issue. I had my instance hosted on Hetzner and it ran just fine.

My concern is the storage, as described above, constantly checking disk space, cronjobs, purging etc etc

And whether I host a single user or a multi user instance is neither here or there. My question still stands.
