I used to have this enormous dev folder of projects. Some with git, some before I knew what it was.

I clinged and backed it up like crazy, until I actually looked at what was contained (spoiler: horrid code). Then I just got used to burning some old code. Now I'm often distracted by stuff like docker, kubernetes and that stuff

It's fun though, I've grown a bunch. but the setup sometimes does overscale badly

I have a personal project that was getting big and unruly, and I'm so happy I learned how to use Docker and converted all the little pieces into their own repos and containers.
That being said, I totally went down rabbit holes that didn't end up being helpful, like setting up my own CI/CD or trying to learn Kubernetes. They were totally overkill for me.
