Do you all have any tips on activities to do yourself, instead of consuming content all the time? (feddit.nl)

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.
