I'm a 44 y.o. bored back end dev – does it make sense to switch to DApp?

The main thing here is that I am slightly bored of doing mostly same thing again and again. I do like Django, the main framework I have been using since 2010. But still, having this gut feeling that it would be more fun to try out something new, something different.

Does anyone have ideas, suggestions, clues... anything that could assist in making up my (or somebody's) mind?

I’m a year older, btw. Why not learn a new programming language? Maybe try creating a golang implemented gRPC backend, for a flutter mobile app. Something simple like a custom bingo card for friends and family to mess around with. Or rust… the cool kids are doing rust these days! :-)

Thanks for the idea. Basically that's why I'm considering DApp - new stuff. Also new language - Solidity. On top of that new paradigm I'd say. Refreshing. Yet something practical - I mean I could Imagine building a mvp. On the other hand building a gRPC which you suggested is more like system programming with target audience other developers and their software - low level stuff. Guess I'm more on the other side. Did you switch at some point after doing same stuff for years?
