What is a good hobby/skill that most people should give a try, and why so?

Biking.
Moving under your own power has so many benefits:
I started cycling to commute about a year ago and it's been such a wonderful thing for my mental and physical health, not to mention my bank account. Beware that you may get sucked down the Not Just Bikes rabbit hole if you're not careful and end up becoming a walkable/bikable cities advocate as I have.
My knees disagree but each to their own ;)
I cringe watching someone struggling to turn the pedals when they are riding a multi geared bike.
Cycling is good for the knees, if you're not staining to turn the pedals. That's why gearing exists.
Use the gears to make the pedaling easier.
Also to add, the seat height should be adjusted such that your leg is just under full extension when on the pedal at its lowest point. Otherwise you are wasting a ton of power with every stroke, and will feel it in your knees much quicker.
