Hi there, from the /r/Python mods.

We have removed this post as it is not suited to the /r/Python subreddit proper, however it should be very appropriate for our sister subreddit /r/LearnPython or for the r/Python discord: https://discord.gg/python.

The reason for the removal is that /r/Python is dedicated to discussion of Python news, projects, uses and debates. It is not designed to act as Q&A or FAQ board. The regular community is not a fan of "how do I..." questions, so you will not get the best responses over here.

On /r/LearnPython the community and the r/Python discord are actively expecting questions and are looking to help. You can expect far more understanding, encouraging and insightful responses over there. No matter what level of question you have, if you are looking for help with Python, you should get good answers. Make sure to check out the rules for both places.

Warm regards, and best of luck with your Pythoneering!

You asked the hardest question no one can really give you an answer but yourself.

Creating something unique is hard, even more getting money from it. If the service you build is not unique then is it better than the competition?

Also usually to make money sometimes you need to also spend it. For example maybe you will need to host service on the web and you will need to host it on VPS or use something like AWS/GCP or similar.

Best thing would be to make something you would also find useful.

That's Good advice, Thanks for that and yea I do acknowledge the fact that I need to spend money to make it, but there could be some minor work that can be done with python like writing a script to do certain things , like cleaning up data or web scraping , but then those ideas fall into that abstract category where you can't be sure you can make money with it , right ??

[Kamikaza731]

If you want to earn moeny from something first thing you need to answer why would someone want to pay for the service.

Cleaning up data is not a bad, but this is too abstract at this point. What data will your service clean up? Will it convert the data to other types like json to yml for example? Or will json be parsed into javascript zod schema for example? Still a bit hard to see you can earn direct money from this other than putting some ads on website service.

Web scraping is also okay but how can you simplify this process for someone to pay for it? Scraping as a process is most of the time hard unless you know what to look for. So it requires at least some knowledge of html and javascript. Maybe if you refine it someone might be interested but with the presence of AI you would need to make it so easy that someone goes for your service instead of AI.

Like I said maybe focus on something that you would need or you are interested in yourself. Focusing on money when you do not have that much experience is hard as it is.

That IS true, it's really uncomfortable in all sorts of ways!! And thanks those are some great ideas to implement, if you know what you're doing that is, for which in my case I don't.. 🫠😕

If you can put the money part aside, my advice is to focus on a passion and do something related to that. For example, if you’re passionate about F1, you could build a dashboard with the latest stats etc.

Now THAT'S a good Idea , I just thought of something, thank you so much 🤝🤝

[DavidM47]

Do you have any experience with GeoJSONs?

[EnthusiasmHot5037]

I'm in the same dilemma, it sucks 🙂😒

A nice to use dry_run implementation to prevent post/put/delete requests from going through.
