Photo editing can be kinda fun, if you design a patch I could probably make it for you!

Otherwise, idk, Worldbuiding is (to me) very fun. Although this does involve drawing at some level if you want to visualize things/races/charakters/anything instead of describing it with words. This was acctually 1/3 of the reason why I started to learn drawing!

Music? Sculpting? Writing? Programming? Acting? Photography? Graphic Design? Film?
You can probably come up with dozens of hobbies stemming from any one of those (making youtube videos for film for example). How can you be asking about creative hobbies when you're so uncreative you can't even think of one?

I haven't been active in Second Life since 2014 or so,and my own experience of commerce was selling animated paintings made from GIFs,priced cheaply to encourage impulse buying and to make people happy. I know that people could make real life livings from their creations, but usually from high priced items like instant houses or heavily scripted things. But as a creative medium, SL will ever be priceless, testing the ingenuity and abilities of its inhabitants.

Plus writing has literally minimal costs to entry. All you need is something that can type or a notebook and pen. Most places let you upload text for free.

It depends really, people can design very different worlds. But I think the best way to get started and "get into it" is taking a look at the Worldbuilding thread on /tg/ (this one offers a lot of resources) and mabye browse r/worldbuilding for ideas and inspiration.

Now I didn't know about those resources when I started out a few years ago, and I hardly use them now since I want to design everything myself, down to the oddest streetname. So you can just start out with pen and paper as long as you're creative

also, have you tried making catoons?

Photography. You only need your smartphone. Even if you just do it casually it's just a great resource for artists. You're improving your compositional sense, color and lighting and you're staying healthy by going on walks and/or traveling to interesting places.

Gamers can get very terratorial, if the game you made is obviously inspired by the popular game in a genre, and gets popular too, you get retards who send death threats if you even dare sell merch for to support your free game. I don't know the psychology behind these actions...

thousands of instruments out there to learn, music language and theory to create music, multiple different types of music language from different regions and cultures on earth, throw in digital music, also singing. that there is several lifetimes of creativity for you. then there's sculpting, carving, building from architecture to woodworking and other related crafts. again, several more lifetimes. writing, including fiction, poetry, philosophy, and more. another several more lifetimes. i've mentioned just a fraction of what's available on earth to be creative in a beneficial way to all of humanity.

There's a sweetspot between 2007 and 2011 (maybe I'm overextending it) that was truly good, we got the culmination of the Classic Era into a more matured format, while also enjoying the Rage era before phonetoddlers and everyone's mother took over the Internet through Facenigger, Twatter and what-have-you.
Being a nerd was still not trendy enough, by 2012 it was everywhere with le world ending because of the Mayan calendar.
After that we get the Occupy Wallstreet movement and the Internet goes full political forever.
