These days I'm mostly buying A5e content...
But even before now, I was buying less 5e content, official or 3PP, than I did for 3e or 2e.
Mainly because there just -isn't- as much. Yeah, both 3e and 2e had issues with Glut. Where there was just too much material to buy and read and use without being in a -very- healthy middle class position... but the variety meant I could buy stuff I liked, not buy stuff I wasn't interested in, and enjoy my various purchases.
Now? When something comes out that I'm not particularly interested in, like Wildemount and Strixhaven, it's months upon months before something I -am- interested in comes out. And the more of these projects that don't interest me come out back to back... it can be frustrating.
I think they should put out more books in the year, with a wider variety of contents. But that's just me.
