Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

As some said, it's fine!
I have it installed on my raspberry pi to run Jellyfin and a few other apps, and it's been mostly stable. However I've had the same thoughts as you, so I can confirm that you won't be able to learn as much with it.
Some of my other needs are hosted on a VPS without CasaOS, and that's where I was able to learn most of what I know. It's also where I spent the most time configuring and fixing incompatibilities.
I'd suggest that you keep CasaOS for the things you want to depend on, and start learning on another system without CasaOS by installing apps you're interested to try out. This way you'll learn about reverse proxies, certificates, docker, etc, without being afraid to mess up your current setup.
