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!

Thanks for the amazing lists of other things to do. I've got to agree that any form of exercise is the best alternative! Are you up for sharing your dumb games with us? I'd love to have a go!

Kinda hesitant to share because the URL's are the names of my family members (kinda a gift to them, kinda me just holding on to the domain names in case they want them someday). But they're definitely not impressive. One of them I'd like to spend some time to make more fun, but as it is now, it's mostly a gimmick (zombies walk towards you and you walk away - 2d, score is just how many seconds you can avoid getting touched). Pretty rewarding weekend project though, and you can easily show it off

Ah, that's understandable, we don't want Uncle Jim doxxed over the zombie game.
