Probably not exactly what you are looking for, but I’d recommend just starting to selfhost things. Have some old computer? Want to get a VPS?..
Something thats neat for selfhosting is pihole, if you feel up for it, go with docker as it makes things much easier in the long run.
Don’t be too afraid to break your software. It will happen eventually. And always remember that stuff deleted with
rmwon’t come back, thats what made me install a new OS on my VPS.This! Selfhosting your own small apps is the best way to get practical, hands on experience with Linux administration.
It’s also super fun and can be very helpful in some conditions.
On the other hand, the deeper you dive, the more at risk is your wallet, some day I will for sure have a server room somewhere.
Back in the day, we used to have “post2host” forums, where you could get VPS servers for free just by being active in the forum. That’s where I cut my teeth on Linux!
Without that, 10 years ago, I would not have my career today. I am thankful.
