Ask HN: Those making $500/month on side projects in 2026 – Show and tell

I'm currently at $0/month from my side projects, and I'm hoping side projects still have a future. I've seen previous threads like this from 2020 to 2024, but the recent one didn't get traction. I'm curious to hear from those who are making $500/month or more in 2026 – what are you doing these days?
