So is downloading movies and series, fuck streaming services.

The most fun and properly constructed games these days are cheap indie games and which don't require expensive gaming rigs.

You don't need an expensive camera, you can already do decent photography with your phone. Just do a course to learn about tricks and composition. Too expensive you say? Hell no, YouTube offers loads of courses for nearly anything. Hate YouTube ads you say? I get it, just use grayjay app for a ad free experience :) because fuck Google.

You can clone plants, put them in second hand pots. Get some seeds. Grow your own herbs and food.

Get a cheap 3D printer. Can be as cheap as 250 euros. Filament can be as cheap as 8 to 10 euros per kilo. Learn CAD through YouTube, design your own stuff. Maybe tools for other hobbies, like a phone stand for long exposure photos or nice pots for your plants.
