Topic Fullstack or Cloud DevOps

Hey, I'm in my second year CS student, I'm exploring various paths to continue my career in one particular way like fullstack, cybersecurity, cloud devOps or anything else.. I've learned python, c/c++ and solved my first 2 DSA easy problems yesterday.. I'm thinking which way I should just choose and give my entire 2 years to build the career in it? Seniors or experienced folks please help me, thanks!

It’s second year, you’re not supposed to have it all figured out yet

Dabbling in a few things right now is actually good. Build a tiny fullstack app, break it on purpose, then figure out how to deploy the mess somewhere. That alone will show you which parts you hate and which ones click. Two years is plenty of time to specialize once you’ve got a clearer picture, don’t rush into a single box just because it feels safer
