Yeah, I totally get it. I’ve run into the same thing plenty of times. Experienced self hosting folks aren’t always the most helpful. AI can give beginners a hand, but you still need to know what you’re asking it to do and double check its answers, since it can make stuff up.

As for the advanced users not always being supportive…not sure that’s something you can change easily. But I do think there’s a lot of potential in a tool or resource that helps beginners step into self hosting safely, get the basics down, and have something solid to build on later.
