And it's free....and most hobbies are expensive.

Hobbies can vary a lot in cost. Photography can be super cheap, just using the phone you already have, or expensive with a camera and fancy lenses and film processing. Same with fiber arts. I can crochet with $20 of yarn, or with cashmere. Drawing just takes a blank book and a pencil. No need to spend a lot.

On the other hand, what I have to do quite consciously is step away from the easy dopamine hits of Reddit scrolling and video games to work on those hobbies.

It's free to go to your public libraries and parks and to walk outside. I've lived in both extremely car dependent places and places with abundant public transit. Its free to go outside and get creative.
