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!

Playing any musical instrument. The feeling of your practice grindings pay off, no matter how still mundane it is to compared to social media professional musicians, is a pretty good feeling.

Video games might not sound like much of a change, but they’re more active than watching movies. It’s a small step away from that totally passive mode.

Life is pretty boring, which is why content addiction works... :/

I did Taekwondo at one point in my life. It was super fun, because I actually felt like I achieved something (a belt) for my hard work

Don't you get a belt at the start?
