Ask HN: What to build (to get excited again)?

Hey HN, I would say I really enjoy programming - and had so much fun when I knew just enough to do the basics (manipulate some html, loops etc) and my ideas seemed exciting and boundless.

Now I have about 4 years experience and feel like programming has lost its magic. My ideas don’t excite me anymore, because I feel like I know the limits of what can be built solo.

For context I have built lots of browser extensions (I found manipulating the DOM of existing sites In a generic manner a fun challenge), I build full stack sites for work.

So what areas can I explore that will excite me again?
