A city map for cyclists that is updated and reviewed by other cyclists. How to get from A to B in a given city, the safest way possible, but with maps that can be edited like a wiki.
CityMapper is pretty good but there’s no way for me to correct a route because one stretch of it is actually a death trap that no one should bike on.

A working realization of Memex, 80 years late in coming
I'd love to rent time on one of the machines AtomicSemi is building, I've got a chip I'd like to make, the BitGrid
Documentation for Free Pascal/Lazarus that was useable, alternatively a framework that replaces their existing documentation so that you could DIY parts of it without their weird build system.

Home use robot weed killer / puller. Does not need to be fast, but does should not need manual moving for each square foot. Although, if it was fast, I could drive it like a lawn mower speed that (even as slow as 1/4 pace) would be acceptable.

Up to date information on Android/iOS alternative phones with a path to purchase. I want to know what the web browser experience is like, eSIM support for data, and Android app emulation performance. Most online information is from like 2020

Unfortunately, most of the phones you describe are also from 2020.
Do we expect Android app emulation to continue being feasible moving into 2027? It seems unlikely to me, so I don't know if these alternatives will take off.

A TurboTax-quality tax filing service for American expats with American investments who live abroad (particularly interested in a few European countries) and have to file in their country of residence and declare the income from such investments. I would pay $1-2k a year for a service like that, as I prefer to do things myself than relying on a CPA who will inevitably mess things up.

I wish America wouldn't tax their citizens abroad. They are one of only two countries in the world that do this. Eritrea is the other one.
Citizenship-based taxation makes absolutely no sense, other than to harass Americans living elsewhere. Every other country in the world does residency-based taxation.

I thought the benefit of using a CPA is then it's on them to rectify any errors?

On Facebook, if you use a web browser you can us this URL to see your friends posts in reverse chronological order, but there will still be ads. So that gets you 1/2 way there
