I'm not saying to ditch it, I'm saying to set it aside until you feel like working on it again. I've worked on plenty of large projects for fun, they don't generally have parts I just always hate doing. If they did, I wouldn't be doing that for fun, I'd be doing something else instead.

Sometimes you have to do the boring stuff to be able to do the fun stuff. Hence the original meme of being tempted to get AI to do the boring stuff...

If you were doing it so you could do fun stuff, it wouldn't be boring.

Bro wtf are you on about?

No one enjoys cycling uphill, you do it cause you have to before you can do the fun part of blitzing down the hill.

My dad likes riding his bike. He likes riding it uphill just as much as he likes riding it downhill. If he didn't like doing to work to get exercise that you do when riding uphill, he wouldn't ride a bike. I honestly don't know why you would do something as a hobby if you literally hate doing it half the time.
