Ask HN: What's your quarantine side project?

I'm also planning on looking into modifying an old digital clock radio I have with and ESP that uses NTP to keep time more accurately but I haven't gotten very far with that yet.

The lockdown is really only half the reason I'm doing these projects now. The other reason is that I moved to a bigger apartment earlier this year so now I actually have space to hack around with this kind of stuff.

Some small real problem I faced before: test\validate idea by counting how many times website visitor clicked the certain button. So I automated it with google sheets and some custom script\backend.

It's called Who Paid More (https://whopaidmore.com) and the idea is pretty frivolous. Every day (EDT) you volunteer an amount you want to pay to see how your amount stacks up against others for that day. Think ranking and relative % across users for that period and the ability to share those results. Not much more to it at the moment.

I feel a little stuck trying to think of what would make it more fun/novel/rewarding besides just being curious about what people put money into.

We’ve had to pivot our idea since the pandemic and we’re looking into working out via Zoom (for example), and allowing personal trainers to connect with clients on the internet. Appreciate any feedback or ideas!
