Has anyone else lost interest in their DSLR after using an M camera?

My main camera is/was a 5DmIV with 3 L zooms. I bought an M5mII with the 22mm and EF/EF-S adapter so I could use my "good" lenses. I quickly discovered my love for the M50 and the 22mm. I also found that large EF lenses on the M50 are a bit awkward and diminish my main attraction to M mount.

I found myself picking up the M50 faithfully while my 5D gathered dust. I needed a bit more reach and chose the EF-S 55-250mm STM since I have the adapter and it is fantastic! My next revelation was that the kits lens is not above average in any way. Blinded by my complete admiration of the M50 + 22 combo, I bought the 11-22mm and I'm waiting to get my hands on it.

With all the front end gibberish, has anyone stopped using full frame over M mount? Last month I would have thought the question to be absurd yet it's where my head is. I've been processing images with Canon DPP and I'm amazed at the results. I haven't even traveled anywhere interesting for epic shots, I'm just revisiting some local parks and attractions.
