Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
More than I can count, but here are the big ones:
http://moros.cc - A hobby operating system, with a shell, an editor, a lisp interpreter, and many other little things
https://geodate.org - A lunisolar calendar with decimal time (centidays and dimidays)
https://github.com/vinc/geodate - An implementation of the calendar + time
https://github.com/vinc/geocal - A tool to visualize the calendar + time
https://github.com/vinc/littlewing - A chess engine written in Rust (and another one before that in C++)
https://vinc.cc/software/ - A more complete list, on my personal website
I'm good at scratching my own itches but less good at finding projects that could be useful for other people.

Announcing MOROS 0.10.1 - A hobby operating system written in Rust
MOROS is a text-based hobby operating system targeting computers with a x86-64 architecture and a BIOS. It is inspired by Unix and ITS but is closer to a modern DOS at the moment in term of features.
- I made a website for my hobby operating system (MOROS)
-
MOROS 0.9.0 released
I wrote this a while ago to answer this question: https://github.com/vinc/moros/blob/trunk/doc/index.md
-
MOROS 0.8.0 released
Indeed, it cannot run on most of the latest computers except those that can replace UEFI with coreboot + seabios. See here: https://github.com/vinc/moros/issues/270

Simplicity of IRC
IRC as a protocol is indeed incredibly simple and easy to get started with. Years ago did discover this when I was able to make [this atrocity](https://github.com/creesch/discordIRCd) bridging IRC and discord where for IRC I effectively did a simple server implementation.
There is a caveat, though. Like many older protocols (ftp) there is a lot that was not initially written down or left up to clients and server implementations. This, does lead to a lot of edge cases you need to be aware of once you want to actually support a wider user group.
Also, as this is apparently is still a discussion. IRC is not simple from a modern user UX perception. Registration can be complex and confusing, though hidden a bit through clients. Managing channels with various flags is a whole other thing. Then there is also the fact that these days people are no longer used to the fact that they can't see messages from periods where they were not connected. Of course, the latter can be easily handled by a BNC or fancy clients like https://thelounge.chat . But, that is only easy for technically inclined folks.

Posthog is closing their Slack community in favor of forum
> It’s 2024, people aren’t going to go out of their way to setup “bouncers” to keep up with conversation that happens when they’re not online or leave their computer running 24/7.
You can just set up something like The Lounge [0].

Show HN: GodotOS: A Fake Operating System Interface Made in the Godot Engine
Excellent idea! You'll have a mature, open standard protocol under the hood, with no vendor lock-in, excellent extensibility, and great modern frontends like The Lounge (https://thelounge.chat/) or Convos (https://convos.chat/) to choose from (and you can choose).

Matrix 2.0: How we’re making Matrix go voom
For the other layers one can front-end IRC with TheLounge [1][2] or Convos [3][4]. TheLounge only persists history in private mode meaning that users are created in that front-end and chat messages are in Redis. For small networks or groups of friends this is probably fine.
Notably missing is voice chat. I use the Mumble client [5] with the Murmur or uMurmur [6] server which is light-weight enough to run on ones home router. I use it on Alpine Linux, works great. It's not a shiny and attention grabbing as Discord but probably fine for everyone else. For people to create their own voice channels would require the full-blown Murmur server.

I'm trying to set up a client device that will remain connected to a server that I can remotely log into
As another self-hosted solution, I quite like TheLounge (https://thelounge.chat)
