Do you all have any tips on activities to do yourself, instead of consuming content all the time? - eviltoast

I’m pretty sick of my content addiction, like watching youtube or netflix all the time. I would rather be spending my time otherwise so figured fun things are the best to start. Do you have tips for fun things to do? Or how I could search for them?

Some I came up with myself:

  • Learning some magic tricks
  • Learning some origami
  • Thrift shopping

Everything is welcome!

Edit: thank you for the huge response!

    Here’s a few of mine:

    -Skateboarding

    -Writing (books, plays, puppet shows, greeting cards, etc.)

    -Learning Linux

    -Writing and performing rap

    -Petting cats

    -Repairing video game consoles and controllers

    -Decorating (using things you own or spending very small amounts)

    -Cooking, baking, etc.

    I also enjoy putting on some music when I have to do stuff that isn’t fun, like laundry, washing dishes or cleaning.
