5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

I'm stuck at home for the next 9 days, what should I do? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I’m off until at least 5 Feb due to a boxers fracture. I’m getting sick of TV and movies. Today I’ll clean my apartment, but even with my busted hand it will only take a couple of hours. I can’t really go anywhere as I need to save as much money as I can to cover for missed time at work.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Solve Rubik’s cubes
Work on music production
Sleep

Thing I probably should do:

Continue to learn Swift
Follow makeup tutorials

Lemmy, what would you do?

EDIT: Keep ‘em coming Lemmsters! I LOVE the suggestions, and can’t wait to give some of these a go!

You seem to feel like you should learn Swift, but don't want to. If you're looking for tech growth, but can't get invigorated, maybe try a different direction?

Self-host a good first-app, like Nextcloud?

Watch build videos on Voron 3D printers?

Switch apps you can from the Play Store to Obtainium to prep for DeGoogling your life?

Make a server out of some old laptop?

Write scripts that automatically set up your PC when you reinstall?

Organize all your techy tools on a pegboard?

It’s been a goal of mine to create and finish an iOS app. I’m setting my sights pretty low right now. I’m just looking for the motivation to actually make something.

I’m interested in Docker as well. I’ve never been able to setup a container that actually works. I just got read up on it.

Rn I’m focusing on music.
