Losing the urge to tinker with automations

So I realized recently that I haven’t changed any of my automations in a while. Like i check it and walk away. Everything works smoothly, and instead of thinking about improvements, I’m just enjoying the fact that it runs without me touching it.

sure... Part of me likes the stability, but another part wonders if I’ve lost some of the fun that came from experimenting and refining things. I’m not unhappy with the system that i personally, but it just feels different compared to earlier stages.

What about you? Did you ever reach a point where your automations felt done, and how did you know whether that was contentment or burnout?
 
A lot of people hit this phase once stability sets in. Not touching things can feel oddly unfamiliar after a long stretch of constant tweaking. Do you miss experimenting, or are you mostly enjoying the hands-off feeling?
