I mostly do JavaScript by day, but I like to learn new things/languages/frameworks/concepts/etc by night, so send your ideas away! :)
here are some ideas to start:
In other words take the time to find out what interests you, not us.
Reminds me of this project by Fabrice Bellard: https://bellard.org/jslinux/
When I say I'm "bored" I don't mean I just stay on the couch wondering what to do, I do enjoy the down time :)
If you want to do web stuff, you could try Elm or Rust in WebAssembly perhaps.
Since you are good at Javascript and willing to learn a new language, why not try to help port CRDT based library e.g. Automerge to compiled language like D language:
https://github.com/automerge/automerge
It seems that Automerge algorithm is quite stable now just need a good native/compiled language implementation especially for enabling local-first desktop applications.
I have a week off in early November and I plan on setting up a small homeserver for Jitsi so my family can use that to stay in touch over the holidays. I’m also looking for some kind of self-hosted social media type deal that I can invite a few friends to.

ps. I've been developing the same freeware for 17 years and it's got me through many difficult times.
An easy way to start is to make a plugin for a framework that you're familiar with. Find something annoying and try to make it easier with a plugin.
Then train a model which when given a json object, and expected visual output, generates the React component.
Then contact me, because I’m so over it.
