    What an amazing hobby! I’m sorry it turned into a what it did. I’ve had this experience countless times.

    Every time I want to start anything, my brain always blows it up into something so grand, that I no longer enjoy doing that thing. The processes become so tedious, that I become burnt out on the journey to become “the best”.

    I’m having to put a lot of work to keep this community simple. I can still feel the creep of wanting to do more, like learning how to build a bot for auto summaries, etc. For now, it’s all good here though.

      My brain does the same thing, but I’m trying to 're’learn how to just enjoy hobbies without having to push them to their maximums.

      I will say, though, that built in automation is a good idea for even the simplest of hobbies, so bots may be a good move for you. My fishroom is mostly automated at this point. It’s nice not having to worry about every detail of care.
