Should I get a CompTIA or other certificate to gain more selfhosting knowledge? (alien.top)

I have been on this sub and playing around with selfhosting for almost two years now but I feel like I've barely scratched the surface.

I often feel inadequate when I see people on this sub discussing what I consider to be advanced networking terms and technologies, especially when discussing remote access.

Will getting a certification like Network+ help me feel more comfortable managing my homelab?

If not, can someone recommend any resources I should look into to get good at being my own sysadmin?

I’ve teached the courses a long time ago. I wouldn’t recommend it as reading a good book 2-3 times will work pretty much the same. If you have the self discipline to learn by yourself use the internet and books. Otherwise take the course but don’t be too disappointed as in the end you still have to learn it by yourself :) many people think a course will circumvent this problem.
