The author is clearly feeling burned out and has lost motivation for his project. Working on something for 6 years definitely shows persistence, and persistence is never blind, there is often something fundamental that is driving people working towards competition.

Whenever I feel like this for a project, which happens sooner or later when you don't have users. You should take a break and redefine priorities. Excitement fades when you are prioritizing objectives that don't bring any real concern-able outcome.

Take a step back, see what is at the heart of your project, and see if it still excites you, is it something worth the struggle and effort? If yes, find a better way to do it or complete it with the way you already know. If not, move onto something new, else you'll keep getting more frustrated because of slow progress and lack of motivation.
