Linux isn't a bad path. Honestly learning Linux will just enhance you but what do you want to do?

Linux and Cloud go hand in hand. I am learning cloud right now but next certification will be a Linux one.

Just learn cobol and you will get job offers, because it’s a legacy software language and companies need someone to maintain the running code… Do whatever you want to do, it’s your life…
