after a grueling 4 years of school and a bit of time at a fintech company ive lost almost all the enjoyment i once had for computers in high school. what kind of projects or whatever can i do to have fun again without feeling stressed.

    You make sure everything is backed up, up to date and secured, you diagnose hardware issues, to a degree - you diagnose software too.

    Best part is that it’s engineering, not creative. If the software problem is hard, you open a support ticket with the vendor. If it’s hardware, you replace it. There’s no solving hard problems of thread concurrency (or whatever feels hard to you) under time pressure.
