Such a common thing in the SelfHosted communities on Reddit and here too. It's always train this or that or learn this and that this cert that job this goal that performance bruh if you're a computer nerd it's okay to do stuff with computers just embrace it.

*Nothing wrong with goals or practicality, but so many are clearly just reaching for noble justifications for what they find fun, which is capitalist christian work ethic brainrot of the highest order.
