So a post looking for advice on how to get started with electronics got boosted onto my timeline, and after forgetting about it for three days, I finally sat down to reply, and ended up writing 2500 words of general-purpose advice across 16 Mastodon posts 😅

So, in case anyone else is looking for some thoughts on where to start if you want to dip your toe into hardware hacking, I found a WriteFreely instance to sign up for and collected my thoughts there, in a slightly-more-readable format: https://personaljournal.ca/cincodenada/whats-a-good-place-to-start-to-get-into-electronics

Let me know if I forgot anything big, I guess, ha!
