My story is quite simmilar. Phil got me into this hobby and whenever I want to upgrade something in my retro PC, I watch his videos first. And just like you guys I've been wondering what happened to him lately.

As a side note... He seems like a genuinely nice bloke, so I was shocked to learn that he stopped posting here because apparently he was bullied? What the hell?

i wasnt around here at the time but i think he stopped posting on here about 10 years ago.. so that wouldnt have anything to do with him not posting on YT these days

Oh for sure. I mentioned this as a side note.

It all goes downhill when they find someone...

haha you reckon its women related?

More broadly family related most likely. Unless you have this hobby developed to the point, where you can actually live off it (the couple larger YouTube channels, some guys who are actually making new things from old stock and maybe a couple others), you generally just don't have time to seriously pursue it anymore between your regular job, family obligations and perhaps some other interests as well. A shame though...one of my favourite too.
