The title is really vague, so I’ll try to clarify my intentions here:
I am an ardent supporter of FOSS. It will be greatly beneficial for my life and especially my privacy to self-host such software. Yet, I cannot find much motivation to do so.
However, when it comes to hosting software for public use, I can usually give my utmost concentration and dedication.
This is not how I want my life to be. I want to be motivated for myself as well as for the community. And if that’s not possible, I need to trick my brain into bringing me into that kind of zone for myself.
What do I do? What would you do in this situation?
Why are you so focused on those other things?
I like FOSS and I like the community. It’s probably just in my character to be motivated for someone else, which is why I’m looking for ways to trick my brain
Naw I mean, those other things in your lab that aren’t for others that you claim you should be doing?
Why not just do the things that are for others? If that motivates you then that’s who you are.
I’m also a privacy and security enthusiast, and everyone wants to have their library of Linux ISOs on Jellyfin lol. I really should get to it
Well I’ve never managed to convince anybody but myself to drop stuff they don’t feel motivated to do. So I’m not gonna try :/
