Why do I start a new side project every weekend lol
by•
I think I have a serious habit with this.
I'll get a random app idea at 2 AM and convince myself it’s a genius concept. Buy the domain immediately. Set up the landing page and GitHub repo. Spend hours tweaking the visual branding.
And for two days I feel like a founder.
Then Monday hits.
"Oh wait, what about this other idea?" and the first project goes straight to the graveyard folder.
The worst part is the original idea was actually good.
Maybe I just enjoy the setup process more than the actual building.

I think it’s really amazing that you do it like that every week. These days, AI handles most of the initial setup so well that I can hardly remember when I last configured it myself.
I still remember how happy I was when I first set it up myself and unveiled “Hello World” on the web for the first time :)
I keep a running notes file for random ideas now instead of acting on them immediately. It cools the urge and saves the good ones for later.
