I feel that. I spend a lot of time doing stuff for myself (playing games, watching videos, and some doom scrolling), but I keep telling myself it's because it's inconsistent in frequency and duration.
But at the end of the day, it's largely an excuse. I contributed to Lemmy a bit when I switched, and I could totally find a few hours a week to help with something. I just don't, because it's always a tradeoff with other things I'd like to do, some of them also productive.
So I guess we'll see what I do. In the next 5 years, my kids will be transitioning to being more independent, and I'll have more and more time available. My current plan is to get more involved in FOSS, but we'll see if I actually do.
