I think it's ok to learn a little about mining, but you should probably step up a notch or two. I have a Nerdaxe which does about half a terra hash. I'm using it to solo mine at the moment, but I used to use it with Oceans bolt12 payouts. I think it paid about 20 sats per block found at current mempool fees.

Using the Nerdminer wouldn't be enough for even a 1 sat payout.
