There used to be a basket full of old National Geographic, Newsweek, and GQ magazines in the bathroom for you and any guests to enjoy.
You've forgotten Reader's Digest.
And we can't forget the episode of Seinfeld where George takes a book into the bathroom.
My grandparents had like a basket full of magazines, comic books, etc beside the toilet. It was pretty good. They often buy weekly reader's digest and stuff like that. So it was usually new every time we visit.
We read a book or sat in silence with our thoughts. Most great ideas were created on the toilet.

In our pants. Toilets came out around the same time as smartphones, so it’s been a pretty revolutionary couple of decades around here.
Archie comic books.
Books.
In my childhood household, at all times, there were in-progress books on the back of the commode. You would simply select the one relevant to you.

Gameboy Advance and then later a Nintendo DS or laptop and then a PSP or laptop towards the end right before I got my first smartphone lol
Pooping shouldn’t be a drawn-out process. You’re better off keeping your toilet time to less than 10 to 15 minutes, says Gregory Thorkelson, M.D., a psychiatrist in the department of gastroenterology, hepatology, and nutrition at the University of Pittsburgh.
In fact, you should only make your way to the bathroom when the urge hits.
If the urge to poop isn’t there, you might be tempted to push or strain to try to get the job done.
And all that straining could lead to the development of hemorrhoids—bulging blood vessels around your anus that can become swollen and painful or even bleed.

That seems, I'm not sure the word, but not correct. You can find a doctor (any professional) to say anything.
I bring my phone and keep a book in the bathroom because I'm NOT straining. I sit down, and while gravity is doing its thing to my guts, I read a chapter. I'm not rushing or pushing or popping hemorrhoids because I'm on my phone writing a stupid comment about pooping while pooping.
I don't think Dr Greg knows how people are using their phones in the bathroom. People aren't reading the back of shampoo bottles because they're in a hurry.

We did not.
I would stare out windows a lot while I was in the bathroom. If you stare at leaves in a tree and let your eyes unfocus you can see patterns and shapes. Sort of like looking for shapes in clouds.
For bathrooms without windows I think I would just use my imagination. I've got a fairly vivid one and just think about random stuff a lot.
It's hard to remember though. I have heard about people reading the ingredients of chemicals while they go, but I've never personally done that.
Shampoo bottle label, obviously.
Sears catalog.
Ahh. I see you have good taste in porn, good sir.
Vintage static softcore is just better. It is all about what you can't see that makes it more arousing. I mean, yeah, we can't see her dilating butthole, but imagining what her winking turd cutter looks like means it is the hottest possible gaping balloon knot imagineable.
You certainly have a way with words, good sir.
Learning French (Spanish in the US) by reading the back of the toothpaste bottles and whatnot. Newspapers, crosswords and magazines were very common in household washrooms.
Magazines and bird photo books
Also, fiber
I used to keep a book under the sink.
I had to poop really bad the other day. I had to make a run for it and didn't have time to grab my phone first. I was in and out in like 2 minutes!
Presumably on a toilet.
We were much more use to undistracted time
