I think I semi-successfully restored some sanity to a long running personal project.

I had added features nobody wanted(afaik), that were a hassle to maintain, and that I didn't have any use for.

I just axed them all. And I stopped adding features without real use cases I actually planned on doing. I was spending hours a week but the project was getting crappier instead of better.

With all that gone, I had time to add features I actually wanted, and clean up the architecture to make that possible.
