Have anyone wondered what were the hobbies of what people had before videogames?

ike between 1700-1960?

Having a hobby is a thing from the new age
Back then people just worked and had sex

the modern web convinced a buncha underages that being foreign and not speaking english perfectly is somehow a bad thing and it's 100% because they want something to be able to latch onto in order to get angry at someone's post, it's the current equivalent of reddit's "minor typo i win" just dumber because there's not even the pretense of an issue, it's just outrage for the sake of outrage
>but mah brown person boogeyma-
european countries where english isn't the first language exist

Don't forget listening to music, reading books, hanging out in the garage and doing woodworking.

Its weird to me how some people here seem to have zero understanding of what people do/did outside of gaming

Well I used to write music but I imagine most people just made some sort of artistic busywork or skill into their hobby, such as whittling wood, sewing, or making crafts.

drinking

You worked all day (which is still true of today). If you had free time, you could read, do art, socialize, or promenade.

One of these days anon should take a vacation day or two and just go outside the whole day. The time goes by just fine.

People are not that different than were 300 years ago. So I assume they used to shitpost on /v/ instead of playing video games.

Writing letters/diaries
Dabbling with musical instruments, drawing and painting
Reading literature
Studying languages

The Swedish King Charles XII better known as Carolus Rex let out rabbits in his palace and hunted them with his friends with "palace pistols" basically really puny pistols that could be shot indoors, and would only dent the walls instead of penetrating them.

It’s well documented for the upper class, but I wonder what the poor did besides getting drunk.
