Long time lurker here. It was Looking doom and gloom but I kept silently applying and got into a bootcamp that got me a job as a contractor.

Around 6 months to get it into the paid bootcamp. I would say getting into linux and having a cool homelab really helped.

Its a mainframe dev role. Idk how the career path is but it does beat being a Barista.

I just wanted to say thank you for all the advice, and I appreciate you all.
