Here we go again!
Take your pick of the many things people have requested over the years. Personally I’d love to see a selfhosted alternative to Foursquare/Yelp so that I can “check in” to different locations and be able to keep a record of all the places I’ve been and what I’ve done/seen/purchased/etc. and leave reviews for such things (we go on family vacations a lot and try different restaurants that aren’t just boring “chains” and it would be nice to look back and see what we liked or didn’t like when we go back to those areas and see if they even still exist after X amount of years)

OP, you could write a reddit bot that copy-pastes u/ThePixlPirate's comment every time someone asks what they should build that's useful for selfhosting lol
