Another way personal projects are different is the fact that there's not usually someone depending on you- whether that's in the form of timelines, API stability, tech choice, etc. I'm working on a large breaking change to a personal codebase right now, and its taken almost 3 years of procrastination, lazy research when I feel like it, and the API changing and changing again due to rewrites. I'd like to finish by 2025, but if I don't, nothing happens! The whole thing has felt fun due to the lack of pressure and just... not working on it when I feel like doing something else. Very different from work projects, even the interesting ones with great bosses and teammates. |
