Perhaps. I scanned the list and most of them sound like interesting projects that I would like to tackle at some point (or that I have tackled in the past for "fun").

Honestly, I think I was in your same position until recently, then I had some time off work thanks to the newborn and decided to start a "simple" coding project. Since it was purely for fun and to challenge myself, I decided to try and avoid bringing in any dependencies and wrote everything from scratch. This made it much larger and more complex than I had initially anticipated, but despite that (or, maybe, because of that?) I longed for those few hours when I could tinker on my project. Coding suddenly became fun again.

Maybe you're just a bit burnt out?

Definitely a possibility
