What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Mine would be creating pen and paper ciphers for my made up secret communication needs.

I used to make porn gifs.

this is the type of comment I was looking for ITT. most of the others are just shy people that don't realize most people would love to have conversations about niche hobbies someone can communicate any passion about.

if you bring this one up, the inevitable followup is either they awkwardly disengage from the topic, or they awkwardly ask to see what you've made

Is that any different from regular gif making? And here I'm assuming it's editing video clips.
