Software forges like #GitHub or #GitLab could do a better job at helping communities save abandoned projects or onboard new contributors in active projects. Here is a blog post of features I miss in this regard:

Would those features be useful to you too? What workarounds do you use? Also I wonder if projects like @forgejo would be open to contributions in that direction.
OpenRefine, a free and open source Java based data wrangling tool, that has gained significant traction for its ability to work on messy data; clean, transform, and standardize data. Large datasets can be cleaned and transformed into other applications with just a few clicks using OpenRefine and thus significantly reducing the time needed for data preparation and cleaning.OpenRefine is a game-changer for Wikimedia projects, that can be used to clean tabular data and connect it with knowledge bases. OpenRefine's built-in reconciliation capabilities make it a versatile tool to reconcile tabular data to a wide range of databases, including Wikidata.In this talk I will demonstrate my experience with using the OpenRefine and it's capabilities for data enhancement and for contributing to different projects like Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, OpenDataKerala initiatives.Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of how OpenRefine can be used for various purposes.

For software that people like to use, following the best practices of Open Source development or UX design might sometimes be detrimental: They both come with a lot of overhead to enable their specific models of scaling which might be not beneficial to create small scale, end-user friendly software as a hobby project. Best practices are always bound to a context like market model, technology and collaboration and competition with fellow professions
Recently, I browsed itch.io’s tools section, a list of many tools, largely for game creation or general computer-supported creativity: Musik, zines, map generators, and batch tools.
