This is big part of why I, even as an IT professional, don't do much homelabbing or selfhosting. So often I'll be scrolling through these subs and see something someone has done and I'll decide I want to do that too, but so often I end up abandoning whatever it is because doing x requires googling for y and z because without y and z, x doesn't work. And after a day of dealing with issues and tinkering on work stuff, do I want to spend more time troubleshooting? Often not.
