After being burned a few times in similar ways I have detached my feelings from work, to the point that I believe that not actively looking for a better job than the one you have is foolish, I know it's an unpopular opinion but I reached the logical conclusion, that my work is just an asset and I sell it to the best bidder.
There is a handful of cases I would concede that you shouldn't keep searching for a new job but they are rare, like when you reach the position and company you dreamed your whole life and it's everything you wanted (e.g
an artist that dreamed of becoming head animator at studio ghibli), or a company where you own a big stake and strongly believe soon will increase in value, or you found a company that provides so much generous benefits that looking for better position would likely be a waste of time (e.g. 200K, 3 day work week, great teammates)
