Probably do more deep dives into archiving internet data. The web suffers Library of Alexandria[0] type events every day and there's an excess of bit-rot that doesn't need to happen if people dedicated more time to scraping and archiving data. Maybe joining the Internet Archive is a good bet here. Since it's volunteer-only, not having a job would be a good fit.
