I stumbled on this community out of the blue, and read the FAQ (sounds interesting). May I provide a suggestion for newbs such as me: Please add a 'Why/What' section at the very beginning of the FAQ. Specifically, What problem does The Invisible Internet Project address, and why (in 1-2 sentences) does the Invisible Internet Project's solution work. I see the "The I2P network is an Overlay Network. The Invisible Internet Project began in 2002 and has been active since that time.", but it does not start with why I2P is needed, and what the overall goals of the project are. The next block is "how", which should be after "what" and "why our solution".

After reading, i think I understand, but I almost clicked off when I had to dive through the text to understand what was going on. Only thing that kept me here was the interesting name of the community. A blurb at the top of the FAQ would be very beneficial for people like me. (and maybe open comments on the FAQ to allow for suggestions to improve the FAQ). Subscribed to see the project and community grow.

You can try magnetic bug screens for door. They allow a person to go through, and close magnetically behind someone. Could lower your mosquito problem even more. Something like this. Note that I have never used this exact one.

I said bidet in another comment, but if you are looking for some other suggestions.

Bathroom fan timer switches: replace your switch for the fan with a timer. Best way to keep bathrooms less humid without having to remember to turn off. I used this one as it doesnt require a neutral
French Door Fridge: not really home improvement, but man it makes a difference in qol. I meal prep for the week and can easily access food, store whole trays, and never had to bend over to get items on the bottom shelf.
Bug screens for door: they have magnetic closing bug screens for doors. If you live in a temperate climate, it can be very nice to keep the doors open without bugs coming in. Also allows pets easy access to backyard without pet door.

Bidet by far. <$60 USD, easy to set up, and my goodness have I never looked back. I do a lot of home improvement (and garden work) and every time I use the bidet I think, "this may be the best purchase I ever made".
