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!

The o-bone

And then when you get good enough you can consume music you like while also learning to play it at the same time. One of my favorite relaxing yet also stimulating activities.
