Ask HN: How do you handle boredom?
Ask HN: How do you handle boredom?

I like to think I can manage boredom with my smartphone. I mindlessly scroll social media and get my giggles when I'm bored. But it has a law of diminishing returns. Eventually I just get sick of social media and the Internet in general. It doesn't spark the same joy. I walk a good distance everyday which helps & gets me back into creative mode when I need to work on a side project. Like what even is boredom? I've looked it up, but the term for me is a lot deeper. I get very deep boredom or extreme boredom to the point I have to go outside for a walk just to do something , even if there is no goal other than to walk. What do you do, to defeat boredom? I'd like to hear your thoughts!
