You're not alone in this matter. I myself as well also seem to by driven by such.

I have gotten some crazy ideas which I have implemented / are in the back burner (currently a student , but oh man)

This advice is generally right though. I also wish that there is an ideal way of doing things , like how linux manages the kernel he likes and he can live decently or some other project.

You might look at source-based like posthog , some api project used to be like this.

Its really hard earning money in open source. But if you do , that is all so great. Also starred your repo.
