What Are Your Problems?


I love building things in my free time. But usually I build something technical or out of curiosity about a new tech/framework/language etc. Not exactly a targeted solution to a real problem (You can see my projects here: https://github.com/spy16).

For a change, I am looking to find problems that others are facing (that also interest me) and build something that solves those problems. Anything that can help fellow developers, product-managers, etc. in their day-to-day work life (I am also hoping, this thread itself can be a useful collection for others like me who are looking for ideas for their next project).

I’m being honest, I don’t have anything in mind that would be simple to build. I have one hard problem which is a Herculean task and that is filtering out topics from all forms of media at once, e.g TV, Radio, Social media, news outlet sites etc For example let’s say I never want to hear about Elon Musk, Tesla, COVID, etc ever again, what would a tool for filtering those topics out look like and could it be built?
