I dont actually know what I want to learn.
Is this actually true? You weren't interesting in learning to code, but just stumbled on a coding site and went with the non-coding stuff? This doesn't match your other statements of being told to try coding and then going to look to learn to code.
If you were trying to learn to code... that leads you down one path.
If you weren't trying to learn to code and were just looking for general education of any kind, then it leads you somewhere completely different.
SO, Conversation started that I should try coding.
The person I was talking to suggested trying something free - So i googled "Free Coding" and Free Code Camp popped up.
I found a lot of people liked it on different websites so I popped in and started up.
Am I interested in learning code? Yes, I've had an interest in writing code for a while.
I've tried several different sites in the past and then something else came along.
I just figured I'd give it another try now that I am more comfortable with things in my life, Wanted to change it up .
Honestly, just think of something you want to accomplish it and figure out a way to do it. Doing a bunch of examples and tutorials isn't going to get you far. You need an objective, and "learning" isn't it. Once you start doing it to produce something, you'll learn everything you need.
My first programming, beyond just playing around with the basics, was making a website that had tools to calculate different things for this RTS/MMO game I used to play. LAMP stack stuff.
