Honestly, I'm so done. None of the YouTube videos are helpful. Some videos have projects that are so basic and lazy, some are very much tied to a specific platform, like Cloudflare, AWS and GCP, and some are so insanely difficult, I am not sure what project I'm supposed to do.

Some say: to-do projects are too basic. Some say that URL shortener is not worth it. Some say that real-time chat apps are overdone. There's also front-end stuff, like React, Vue and Svelte. And if that's not worse, there's also opinionated answers, for back-end like for example, Rust being the future, avoiding JS or Python, or using niche backend like Phoenix or Laravel and micro-framework in some niche functional language. Then there's also this low-code/no-code stuff. We're also supposed to learn extras like Docker, Kubernetes, websockets, service workers and what-not other stuff.

I've wasted most of my time worrying about the stack and idea, that I've left them incomplete. What do I even make then as my project? A git hosting platform replica? A live-streaming social media? Almost like as if people are looking to hire a one-man army to handle the entire department. I've also completed the core lectures for FSO, but I'm still struggling.
