I could do some constructive Amiga work but the Amiga situation takes away my motivation.
If you are not up to challenges presented by hardware or software limitations, then you probably shouldn't code at all.
There have always been difficulties to overcome in writing code.
And advocating an FPGA 68K while dismissing a PPC (in comparison to an X64 cpu) is silly.
No FPGA project available or in development comes close to a PPC's level of performance.
And at comparable clock speeds, X64 does not have that great an advantage over PPCs.
Then again, I am off enough to wish that MIPS had continued to receive as much support as the PPC (or better yet, ARM).
RISC still offers advantages over CISC, and at their core many CISC cpus use RISC architecture.
