Recently deleted Instagram, Reddit and disabled YouTube shorts. I now noticed how much I miss doing something — like when sitting in the train or during breaks at work.
So what do you do with your idle time? Any suggestions?
IMHO handhelds are truly a gem to be kept, and until streaming gaming (appears to be “the future”) is widely available for everyone we are better with the retro gaming community.
Honorable mention to larger handhelds such as the Switch or the Steam Deck…
For long drives/commutes I love listening to podcasts, banter/discussion-heavy streams, or audio books. Also love a bit of karaoke in the car.
If I’m at home, I’d often get into something for bit. Maybe try a new game for a week or two before I grow bored or maybe try out a niche hobby for a while like figurine painting.
I’m not the type to do much productive things at home so my main hobbies are usually outside. Golf, kendo, gym, bouldering - anything that I can sink time into and gradually get better and meet new people is my jam. I also spend the idle time at work or at home learning or researching more on the hobbies I enjoy.
I’d recommend giving audio books a try. There’s so much to choose from and you can find whatever book to match your mood at the time.
