I remember that I asked a lot of things everytime that I tried to know somethig new and interesting related to technology. I’m still doing it. Sometimes I found cool people who tried to help me and/or explain me how to do some specific thing.

In other opportunities I asked to wrong people and received bad answers, ugly faces, etc…

The idea of this community is to avoid those “ugly faces” and find proper answers to genuine techie questions that blocks you to follow your learning.

Topics? A lot… for example:

• Self hosting
• Docker
• Open source
• Linux
• Command line
• DevOps
• “How to” And a lot more that I can’t list here :)

But, why?

I took this idea for another Reddit sub called “Learn Python” that is self explanatory. You had a sub called Python and the other one.

So if you had any question related Python, you can go to Learn Python to put it there and many people were willing to respond.

Doing this the Python sub was “clean” and always with new fresh content.

In another subs (like Self Hosted or SysAdmin) a lot of people made their questions and sometime were more questions than new content. Several question were repeated too and sometimes that created noise. (Do you remember somethig like "How can I selfhost my own photos like Google Photos?")

I’ve all the answers? Of course not! So I invite all the people who want to participate to help this new people with a lot of willing to learn.
