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’m still pretty new to the Apple ecosystem but already got sucked into multiple devices. The YouTube channel “Proper Honest Tech” has been the only “in depth” source I’ve used, though while some things are fairly rudimentary or easy to find, he’s had a few videos detailing apps or features I hadn’t touched.
One thing I desperately want to make much better use of are shortcuts–the app is basically a (very) high-level programming language.
Totally an aside, but it’s funny I’ve been mostly out of networking and ipsec/cybersec for… a very long time… and only recently been realizing how far out of date I am while looking into pfSense and OpnSense info after finding an issue with my consumer/gamer router.
I’m very much going to be hitting up other resources mentioned in this thread too.
