Hi guys! I was wondering:
What self hosted software are you missing? What would you which existed?
Background: I am a quite Senior Dev and have 6 months between gigs. Would be fun to start a side project to keep my skills sharp.

Honestly one that seems relevant in light of the last two weeks is a web gui / front end for a Linux based firewall similar to what pfsense/opnsense are for BSD. Yes, there’s openwrt, but that’s not what I’m going for.
It’s kind of shocking that something like this doesn’t exist (even in component pieces) for a Debian based distro.
I’m planning on starting something like that soon since I also wanna build my own router/firewall from scratch and couldn’t be bothered to remember everything about iptables
Honestly firewall-config does a pretty decent job with the firewalling part of things, if you don’t need anything too complicated. It’s not web based, but can be run over ssh without too much of an install footprint.
I think the way to go here would actually be to integrate some plugins with cockpit-project, which already has some of what you’d need.
