I saw this while looking through this thread and I just wanted to say you're not alone.
In my free time I play videogames mostly. I dream of making them myself, but I never have. And I generally don't do cool tech projects like this for myself either.
I made a canvassing app for my friend who was running for mayor of his town once, but yeah.
I barely even have my own github account.
So please don't feel like an imposter. It's ok to treat tech as a day job. :)

HN is full of people with side hustles and hobby computing projects, some of which are pretty interesting.
But it's really OK to do other things after work, especially things that you enjoy.
Even computers are good for a lot of things other than software development. Games, for example. ;-)
