  • Then find an itch to scratch. Both starting a new project and contributing to an existing project have their own merits. For long-term sustainability of our ecosystem the latter is more valuable. If you got enough time, you should try both. If you do your own, it does not have to be a huge project, but it could be something very specific and limited such as my audioclock linked in the top post or https://github.com/bmwiedemann/srttools or https://github.com/bmwiedemann/curlwwwfs

  • curlwwwfs

    mount HTTP directories with FUSE

  • zq1-salt

  • There might be a one-time effort for setup, but usually then things just keep working (TM). Even when I get a new machine I just need to apply the config management https://github.com/bmwiedemann/zq1-salt/blob/master/srv/salt/config/hp/scanner.sls to get scanner+printer setup.
