It’s the same thing with pretty much everything I think. I’m a car guy and the hobby is dead. Now you can put a fancy paint job or wheels on a car but that’s it. Few people want to dig into the complexity of modern automotive systems.

My wife sews. It used to be cheaper to make your own clothing. More recently, pricing for fabrics and other materials went so high it became an expensive hobby. And now that Joann’s has gone out of business she literally can’t get fabric “reasonably” anymore.

Humans ruin everything.
