I'm the one
One thing I feel is irrefutable is we will all, at one time or another, loose a certain amount of interest in the hobby. This really shouldn't come as a surprise or revelation to anyone. We all loose interest in the things we enjoy, from time to time, for various reasons that are applicable to us and, some times, only applicable to us.
Where I am concerned, the loss of interest with the hobby isn't as much attributable to the hobby itself but things that are not hobby related and take precedence over it. Things that prevent me from getting back into the hobby in the practical sense, building my layout.
So far as the hobby itself is concerned, well, change is inevitable and not all change is for the better. Where that/those changes are the basis for the loss of interest then I think people have only two choices;
1. Get out of the hobby and find something that meets their expectations and needs, or
2. Accept (albeit reluctantly in some cases) the changes and work around them where and when possible.
