Same. Oversaturation of mid Marvel TV shows to stay in to loop just led me to completely dropping the Marvel movies too years back. Same for Star Wars.

One of the cons of making a big linked universe when it starts becoming quantity over quality with references to each one.

I was burnt out by the time we got to Endgame. It seemed like the best place for me, personally, to drop it all. I haven't watched a single Marvel thing since then, even the ones I was genuinely interested in at the time.

They absolutely leaned into quantity over quality and I don't care for it.

I got burnt out trying to catch up ahead of End Game by the time I reached the first Captain America movie

This was me too. There was some stuff post endgame that seemed interesting, but I wasn't sure what else I was supposed to watch first, so I just didn't watch anything. It was just easier to avoid marvel or put it off in favor of consuming something more straightforward.
