So as the title says, I run a homelab with various technologies — Proxmox, Home Assistant, a reverse proxy, lots of Ubiquiti equipment, and so on. Over the years I’ve consumed countless hours of articles, stack overflow posts, youtube channels, and knowledge bases to keep myself up to speed on how to use this equipment and what new outcomes I should aim for.

I’m also deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem, with Apple TVs, iPads, Phones, Macbook Pros, and even a homepod. I’ve noticed that the Apple equipment has far less documentation on the whole. I watch Apple events to learn what new features a device will have, but I don’t really see a lot of tutorials or even instruction on how to use it.

Where do you go to get the kind of in-depth learning for your Apple devices that is needed to make expert use of them? Do you have favorite youtube channels that I haven’t discovered yet? Please post below and let me know!

    I agree–it’s much easier to find support for my Ubuntu on Intel server than my macOS on M1 server…

    I spend a lot of time reviewing Linux documentation when there is overlap, but it would be great to create such a community…

    I always write up my own guide as I’m going in case I need to recreate it. Some of those I write up and post on my own website in case anyone else needs it in the future. Still, sometimes I’m not really sure what finally fixed the problem (e.g., I had a weird issue between CloudFlare and DEVONthink Server that finally resolved but is ridiculously easy to break–and I’m still not sure why the “solution” works…).
