I created and hack away on jsoup, a HTML parser/scraper for java. https://jsoup.org https://jsoup.org
I created it initially just to scratch a personal itch (to make another project, https://alterslash.org https://alterslash.org, more resilient to upstream changes in HTML), and now get a lot of satisfaction just in knowing how much it's used around the world for all sorts of use cases I hadn't really imagined when I started writing it.
And it's great fun finding new areas to benchmark and micro-optimize.
