Recently downloaded the phyphox from F-Droid and thought about this while thinking about what all stuff I could do with it.

Are there any online resources about such stuff?

What all things have you(or people you know, in your locality etc) done along that line?
And not only big thigs, if you’re tracking other stuff, please do share your experience on that too.

Edit:
Sharing the github page of the app too:

    I track lots of things, all the time; my body composition, performance at specific tasks… As for experiments, I’ve done a few:

    • Tried to see if I could 3D print small channels and fill them with metal using electroplating (couldn’t).
    • I also made a DIY ultrasound imaging device and tested it. Did actually produce some images, but it wouldn’t penetrate very far in tissues.

      Cool.

      Did you notice any trends from your tracking?
      Things that others may also be find useful/intetesting?

        Well, one thing I’ve noticed in most measures that involve mental things (mood, performance…) is that lots of things seem to be cyclical. For example, mood is often alternating (more so in my case), but productivity and burnout also tend to repeat predictably as long as the routine doesn’t change.

        Also, I’m maximally performant in tasks when most stable (good sleep, moderate mood, medication, no drugs…), but maximally productive when in a better mood.
