It feels like anything is mowed down on the internet. I've been a dev for a long time too, and I never feel sure when I chose a stack for a new toy project (in my day job I rarely get to chose, so that's a non issue there)

There is a good quote from Bjarne Stroustrup for that "There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses". I think for hobby projects it's the best to use languages that interest you

There are two types of programmers, those who write buggy code and those who never do anything.

This for sure. At work (fe dev), I need to get things done quickly and reliably, so I use Svelte. At home, I'm just playing around, so I'll try things that are out of my wheelhouse or strange, eg rn I'm rebuilding the site I always rebuild in Qwik, Go, and Surrealdb - why? Because they seem neat. (Though I might just rm rf that to build something on Bun, because is there anything is can't do?)
