I can certainly recommend this as a starting point. I dropped the gym membership several years ago and basically have only done some variant of the /r/bodyweightfitness rr since... around 2017 I think?
My key insight was to start with the RR and then supplement / mix it up once I understood what was going on. There are interesting variants and/or alternatives to the individual exercises in the RR that are worth exploring. You can target slightly different muscle groups in slightly different ways (e.g., hammer pull ups vs chin ups vs wide bar strict pull ups etc). You can rotate through them to keep things interesting.
A fun "hacker" approach (for me anyway) was to try to improvise supplemental exercises myself rather than looking them up. I independently discovered using rings for hamstring curls by messing around on my own, for example. Same with ring bicep curls.
If you have a pull-up bar and rings, the amount of variation at your disposal is really quite large.
