You gotta follow some people, and also hashtags. Following hashtags made a huge difference populating my feed. There's no algorithm so you get to/have to choose what you want to see.
I also use the ice cubes app for mastodon, which has a trending option also for when I want to see what's gaining traction outside of my follows.
This barely qualifies as a hobby, but at some point I decided to learn how to count in binary on my fingers. It's handy if you need to hold a number in your head for a bit and can't write things down, or to count past 10 visually on your fingers for somebody. There are probably YouTube videos on it. I literally can't remember where I learned, but I practiced a lot when bored in church. It's relatively non-disruptive and practicing can eat a decent amount of time.
0 materials. Just takes time. Literally free.

I wish I could recognize different kinds of trees qams common plants while I'm on a walk

For some reason I'm on Rogue Legacy 2, cause it's free with PS Plus Extra. Simple rogue lite, and right now life is kinds stressful so it's nice to pick up a game that I don't really need to think about. The mechanics are fun, and it's been a while since I've enjoyed a platformer like this. Also playing Humanity from PA Plus, and it's excellent. Almost done with it, and looking forward to trying out some of the user-made levels once I'm done with the story mode.
As a former Apollo user, using wefwef for lemmy has made adoption so easy. 10/10, it's basically an Apollo clone in-browser and has been working great. https://wefwef.app/
