Actually, these are mostly based on my New Year resolutions, and not all of these will be applicable to you, but you will surely find one or two to add to your new year resolution as a desktop Linux user.

If you’re in that category you’re probably not in this community.

what's that supposed to mean?

If you aren’t interested in more parts of Linux or computers then you are likely not going to be reading this community. For example you made the comment, but you also state you have a home lab. So you’re at least partially interested in more.

But I am reading this community and am interested in surface level linux stuff like the MMB Paste issue?

Wrong. I recently gave up on setting up a docker setup at my homelab and am now learning more if it before trying a second time. I read lemmy Linux communities and itsfoss since two years or more.

Then by definition you are not in that category. You’re interested in more. So you both are interested in more and are in this community.

I am barely "comfortable" with Linux, have only a very rudimentary, half broken V1 of a homelab set up on Linux Mint. I count myself into that category, yes. But I also read stuff here and on itsfoss and on other plattforms, mostly to learn things by osmosis, because I am not interested enough to buy a Linux or Commandline Book or sth.
