Digital vs paper spreads: am I the only one who switched back to pen after 9 months?

So I went all in on a tablet setup last January, thought it would be the end of my messy notebook pile. I used GoodNotes for everything, loved the search feature and being able to move stuff around. But after about 6 months I noticed I was actually skipping days because opening the app felt like a chore. The tactile thing is real, I guess, because going back to my old A5 notebook with a $3 pen made me actually sit down and write every morning. Now I keep the tablet for work stuff only and my personal bujo is back to paper. But then a friend says her digital system is the only reason she's kept up for 2 years straight. So which side has more staying power for you all, and how long did each method last before you hit a wall? Has anyone else done the flip flop? Just trying to see if I'm the weird one here lol.

Whole debate feels like overthinking it. Both tools work fine, people just like to blame the notebook when they lose interest in tracking stuff. Just pick what makes you show up, that's the whole trick.
