Hi all,

I like programming and do a lot of hobby projects. But I don’t really do web development, or android, which seems to be what most work are about.

I like making desktop applications, computational projects, etc. i also like problems where I can solve/automate tasks using programming. I have like 100 projects in GitHub now, and I love contributing to open source community. But it sometimes makes me feel like I could be using that time to do things that could make money instead of working on projects that noone will use.

I’m looking for small jobs, independent tasks I could do for minor income. But if it’s in python or rust, I am open to a bit larger projects.

      Fiverr and upwork are the standard starting places, their policies of keeping contractors on the site are rough, the cut they take is rough, and the competition is rough.

      I’ve had success identifying specific software vendors with functional deficits and targeting customers of that software

        I had upwork account since a long time, last time I tried (was a few years back), it just said “we have a lot of people with your skill, so no” lol
