The biggest have been classical guitar, studying and learning languages, sinopaleography, brewing from malted barley and homegrown hops, painting D&D minifigs (and playing D&D of course), making chainmail armor, drawing, dyeing shirts, aprons etc. with fabric dyes, wax resists and tie dye, artisan yarn dyeing, Western and premodern Chinese calligraphy, French horn, arrowsmithy and fletching, and some pretty serious cooking and baking. Lesser ones: making ceramics and underglaze painting with cobalt, painting in watercolors and acrylics, molding glass, carving name chops in soapstone and microsculpting, leathercraft, treebark painting, antique collecting, and photography. If physical activities count, Matsubayashi ryu karate, medieval archery, racquetball, SCUBA, and spelunking. Probably more that aren’t coming to mind right now. And now, beginning magic.
I am an architect so everything thas has to do with design atracts me... also leatherwork
My hobbies changed throughout the years as I aged or moved but some have stuck with me or I came back to them.
For instance Magic is a hobby I did a little bit in my early 20s then rediscovered again in my mid 30s. But a constant since childhood has been gaming; board games, video gaming, and tabletop role playing (TTRP).
I’ve painted miniatures off and on since my 20s, it kind of goes hand in hand with TTRP.
Some of my past hobbies included comics (still enjoy them just don’t draw or collect much anymore), martial arts (Isshin Ryu), models (aircraft, cars etc), Magic the gathering…some of these I may return to one day. But for now my schedule is pretty full!

I do some crafting as well - leather work and blacksmithing.

Leatherwork and Panthera leo are a natural match, right? My roots are nearby (461).
I love getting to read through all of your hobbies, some of those are very unique! Aside from Magic, I am big on Music as well. I play the piano and trumpet and have recently become a piano tuning assistant. I also enjoying camping and fishing up in our mountains.
As my username implies, I'm also heavy into Kendama - Japanese ball and cup skill toy. Got into it about 7 years ago while I was buying some fresh decks and just never stopped, landed a job with a brand who makes em', etc.
It's the one hobby I've found that itches the skill & dexterity side of performing, which is the opposite of how I want my magic to feel. Combined, it's a lovely balance of interests.

Wow, it’s so cool seeing the variety of hobbies everyone has! For me, it’s cycling—I love exploring new places on my bike. One of my favorite memories is cycling around the Mekong in Vietnam with https://gowithguide.com/vietnam the views were incredible. Magic and cycling feel so different, but both give me a sense of freedom in their own way. Also, some of you have such unique hobbies, like sinopaleography and Kendama—super interesting!
