Indeed! After years of wanting to finally I was able to create my own budgeting app with my own needs with auto ingestion of transactions, an Uscis case tracker, gh stars organizer, you name it. The list of ideas I accrued over the years is just now 1 prompt away from being a testable iterable app that I can self host and use behind tailscale. Good enough for my wife even. There is something more addicting about building for others though, I did open source my apps in case it helps anyone, but I presume its why chefs become chefs, put something out and immediately see its effect on others. I guess now marketing will be even more important. Even for free and genuinely morally good ideas that don't have an agenda behind them and I am a bit scared that most people who care about marketing that much are not trying to spread free public utility around...
