27. I'm a half step away from a lurker myself

I check in almost every day but rarely post. Life.

My only advice is not this to use DU as your main source of info. Lots of information here, but lots of opinion and speculation (which I enjoy).

That’s not meant to be negative.

It’s just that that is not healthy for your brain to rely chiefly on one source. Read widely and keep your eyes always open. And then check in here to see what people are thinking.
