Practicing new skills during the pandemic

Has anyone done this? I've personally tried spending my time learning C# coding for private game servers, and a little bit of design/webdesign. I think most of us had plenty of time to try new stuff, or looked into changing our careers/jobs, finding new ways to earn some money. What was yours?
I spent my time during the pandemic studying python. I’m disabled and took the opportunity to learn a new skill beings I cant do manual labor anymore. So far I’ve had zero luck finding remote work but at least i can say I’ve learned a new skill.

SneakyBoots Discord or HF convo me.
How do you like C#? That's a language I took interest in a long time ago and wish I kept up with it. During the pandemic, I just kept on fine tuning my web development skills.
Staff will never reach out to you off-site. We only communicate on HF.

Try finding a project you'd work on using the skill and make you own money instead of working for somebody :)

Honestly I love it, it's really simple once you grasp the basics of it, and using it in the games domain it's pretty cool

How's that been working out? I used to do it in 2016-2017 I think, is it actually worth doing it still? I know it was back then

It's a bit harder than before but it's still profitable! I did some nice earnings as well.
I joined a big IT corporation so that I could learn something new and get paid at the same time. I am too lazy to learn anything new myself.
