I 100% agree with you when it comes to software meant for me. But there's a lot of software that doesn't exist for people who can't prop up capital like we can.

Where I live, you have to pay a lawyer something like $1,200 to clear an old arrest off your record and good luck affording that if you can't get a job or housing because of an arrest that happened a decade ago. I'm currently working to automate as much of the process as possible to bring the cost down to closer to what I think it should be ($0).

If you want to find things to program that are useful to someone, it might be worth your time to go looking for things.
