Advice for Passive Income Project

Hi all, There was a popular thread about 4 years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12318449

Did anything change during this time about best passive income methods?

I have about 10 years of developing experience (mostly java/spring), but I just don't have any idea about what to start and commit to it.

Any suggestions? What methods of passive income would you suggest?

While I don't have a specific advice for passive income, I'd like to point interested people to https://github.com/nayafia/lemonade-stand. This is a resource detailing various money-making models for open source projects, which feels like a good subset of what people might imagine when thinking about passive income, as chances are a lot of people on HN love open source as well as making money and probably strive to find a way to combine the two if they could.

I'm undergoing the same journey currently- and from what I've seen/read passive income is rarely passive ;)

I recommend checking out indiehackers.com and stackingthebricks.com to get inspired and start to see what goes into undergoing such an endeavour.
