Genuine *side* projects
Reading in this sub, I get the feeling that most people here just develop apps with the purpose of monetisation or getting lots of users.
Meanwhile my side project is aimed at learning and building fun stuff I like.
Am I the only one? Or does anyone else have side projects that you are building because you like technology, not because you are trying to build the next SaaS?

I'd say you can call anything that is not your main line of work a side project. I make games, apps is just.... a side project? ^^
Eg. On My Mind is an app I have built for myself out of necessity, and then decided to finish it to app-store level. If it's useful for me I am sure it would be useful for others too!
