I'm a mid-level backend dev, ~3 years YOE. I wanted to seriously start thinking about expanding my skillset and learning new stuff / new technologies outside of my daily tasks. But I'm unsure of how to start, how to decide, what would be most helpful to my career, etc. Any advice?

Depends on what you already know and have experience with, where you're looking to go or are interested in.

Work should provide the opportunity and capacity to explore alternatives where they may make sense for work/projects.
