Does this article match other people's experience? The whole opening premise, that few people have hobbies now seems entirely wrong to me. I can't think of anyone I know who doesn't have at least a few hobbies. Many people I know are significantly into several hobbies, and most people are at least casually invested in some.
- rossdavidh 8y agoI know people whose only hobbies seem to be watching TV and going to concerts, but then I have always known people like that, so perhaps it is not indicative of a trend either way.
- FrankyHollywood 8y agoNot really, I have hobby's just as my friends have them, but I feel rare. I don't use social media, and I don't have Netflix or hbo. As a software engineer I have a lot of screen time. At home sometimes I watch a movie or do some gaming, but I don't hit the 5hr average. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/01/business/media/nielsen-survey-media-viewing.html https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/01/business/media/nielsen-su... Doing a lot non digital things in my free time is a conscious decision. The fun thing is you meet a lot of people who are active I as well.
