(I think I'd lose my mind making enough matzo to grind into flour, especially as I have neither a food processor nor a mortar.)
If you put the matzah in a plastic bag (ziploc ideal, but a produce bag tied in a knot to close it will also do) and hit it repeatedly with something heavy, you will get a sufficient meal to make kneydlakh with. Like, three pieces of matzah nets you about a dozen kneydlakh. It does not take forever and the hitting things part might even be cathartic.
Our two apples are at the stage where they could be eaten if baked but would be grainy if raw, so I am planning to make a variant on Sephardi charoses with chopped dates and apricots.
My family has used a suitable-looking vegetable as a substitute bone for years, so fortunately we have carrots and ginger root and one of these will be the sacrificial object.
We have no wine, either, and that may just be how it is this year.
