For me it is just like when I was 10 I had a pocket knife.

As a 10 yo I did not have much real stuff to do with a pocket knife, but it was cool.

Well as a 15yo I thought computers are cool and I was into computers - but still I did not have real stuff to do with those. Just gaming, configuring different linux distros for fun.

Now I am adult and I own knifes, but I don't care much about these. I need to chop a chicken or cut a piece of rope I get the knife but I am not collecting them or holding in my drawer in "special place".

The same with computers, nowadays I use them as tools and they are not meant to be fun. I have my work to do and I am done. Well I still do quite some web browsing and media consumption unlike author, but it is not like I am going to build a PC from scratch and install some distro of the month on it just to see if I can make it work, because I have real stuff to do.

OK sometimes I get raspberry PI from the drawer to see if I can install some new raspian or rasbberry os on it.
