I was recently dismissed from my uni where I was planning on studying compsci (mostly had to do with my very bad grades from the semester I tried to major in mechanical engineering but I degress). My hope is to contribute to the FOSS ecosystem as a developer, but as it stands I have very little experience programming. I feel I have a rather strong conceptual understanding of how computers work, but I still don't know how to talk to them. As school is no longer an option, I am unsure how to proceed. I currently am hoping to learn c and to use it to write a utility for managing multiple ttys with simultaneously different DEs and WMs on a linux system but I feel this project is too ambitious for my novice self. Are there any projects or advice y'all have, any would be greatly appreciated. Anyway regardless I hope you are doing well :)
