I've been feeling pretty bored for a while and my job isn't really giving something fulfilling to do, So I want to make something.
However, I don't want to make something useless. unfortunately, I can't think of any software I'm in a particular need for. I would love to make something that solves a real problem for a real human.
So, please tell me, what's something that you wish existed because it would reduce suffering in your life that little (or big) bit?
Edit: Wow wow and wow, I didn't expect this thread that I made on a whim to blow up so much. So many idead!

Hey! I’ve been trying lately to get rid of big platforms from my life. One part of it is that I usually buy ebooks/audiobooks from apple, Amazon or google, however I’m then also forced to use their reading app, which is a vendor lock-in I’m not comfortable with.
I know there are plenty of ebook readers out there, but I’m trying to find
- A store where I can buy ebooks that can be opened in a ebook reader of my choice.
- A way to then sync my progress between phone and laptop. I have nextcloud setup, so if I can make use of that then it’s perfect.
Anyone here got any tips?

Where do you find volunteers to help with open source projects? Such as:
For example, with KeenWrite, I'm looking for help help with a specific feature that could be applicable to a wide audience (i.e., academia and technical writers). The lion's share of the effort for cross-references would be an extension or change to the flexmark-java library: parsing a de facto standard cross-reference syntax, rather than direct changes to my text editor.

Hey y’all. Recently picked up a Cyberpower prebuilt. Looking to install a Linux distro on it for gaming. Currently have Ubuntu on my laptop, so I’m not a total noob, but my experience is still low. Not a big fan of having to use the terminal. Any distros y’all would recommend? Am leaning toward Pop_OS or SteamOS.
