What do you do if you hate your (large) code base
The title says it all. What do technical founders do who have large code bases and they have come to the point where there is significant technical debt hiding in some corners to the point it starts to hamper development velocity and they start to hate their code base? How do they regain happiness and productivity?
What you describe often leads to v2 re-write projects. Sometimes it works out well and other times not so good.
Can you split it into different components?
Spit on your hands, pick up the ax, and chop wood.
The code base won't fix itself.
And it ain't someone else's problem.
Good luck.
