Other similar tech channels have also lately announced that they're considering either retiring or entering a period of hiatus. I'm thinking of hopping in the same train.

Basically I'm considering a break from the Lynxmic YT channels for an indefinite amount of time. Could be days, could be weeks, could be months.
(the Lynxmic channels WILL not disappear FYI, just no new content)

I have lately realized that working on any videos for the channel just feels like more of a task I need to do than something I'm passionate with.
I am simply just not motivated enough, it takes me a *while* to even want to open OBS or DaVinci Resolve

I feel like I have to do anything to keep the channel back on track, make sure the growth rate won't fall down by constantly pushing out videos and hoping the algorithm will pick them up etc.
If you want people to enjoy your channel and all that, you have to come up with good content with good effort on them. A good consistent schedule will help as well. This is what I've been aiming for, but often I just don't feel like putting the sufficient effort and the video will end up "rushed" in a way, not according to my original envisioning

I will be coming back sometime later with my batteries recharged and fresh new content
For the time being I'll focus on other projects etc. Server [the LynxPlaza Discord Server] will continue to operate normally.
(I may still work on editing the Clyron-Horibyte collab every now and then, but that's it. No ETA when that video releases)
