I'll say my experience has been that a lot of my website improvements come in waves but there are long periods of no progress. Once I had things fleshed out a bit more the changes I've made have typically been smaller/easier.

I still have a long list of ideas in GitHub though. I'm always looking for opportunities to work on it more.

<h​avacow#0> An ideas list is a good idea. That might be helpful for organizing what I want to do so that I'm more inclined to do it.
#
[aciccarello]
I just use GitHub issues. Some people use their personal page on the indieweb wiki.

what is itches?
#
Loqi
Itches, in the context of the indieweb, are individuals's personal sources of annoyances using the web or in particular their own website, that they use to itemize and prioritize what to create, design, build, and improve on their own website, often by first listing such "itches" on a section in their User: page or on their own website https://indieweb.org/itches
#
[aciccarello]
Still not a fan of the word "itches"
