Right now my only hobby is pc gaming, and it's getting boring. I can't find any good games, and I think my vision is getting a lot worse (I'm not sure if its because I'm on my computer all day). Right now I have tight hamstrings which makes running hard, and I can't really straighten out my legs. So I would like to stop gaming (not completely) and find a new hobby, but I have no idea what. I"m still too young to be going out and being able to purchase whatever I want, or to be going wherever I want, but if it's kind of cheap I should be able to buy some materials if it's needed. I'm mostly looking for something inside, but not something that I have to sit down and do for hours at a time. (btw I've tried coding/programming but I wasn't a big fan of it) Also, I'm not very creative so it makes art/writing hard.
Thanks for the help in advance! :)

Tight hamstrings and concern about sight suggest ageing. I would suggest you begin to do some yoga as a means of keeping what suppleness you may still have. If you don't use it you lose it. Yoga may not be a hobby but if you find a group then there is a social element otherwise you can find plenty of guide to yoga on Youtube
Full length yoga class for beginners and seniors.
How is your Bahasa kebangsaan Indonesia? Try duolingo.com It has different levels with audio and is quite handy. Free.
 
All you need is a black Speedo and golden Rolex, and you're all set...

I have a hobby: checking IPs and detecting spammers.
Do I need to say more? :D

From Nov 27th to Dec 06th you have been reported multiples times to spammer databases, save for December 02nd. Was that your gaming day?
No serious, answer Bro! I try to understand.

It's not a scam per se harryopal. Just a spam.
The OP isn't genuine. He just ask a question and some time later, can be a day or a week or more, a colleague or several will answer the question providing a link.
And sometimes, another or several user (read colleague(s) again) will appear and comment the link(s) saying how much he has been happy/had fun...etc with the content of the link. All happy customers. :D
If you read the OP there are several possibilities to answer with a link. An allegedly not boring game, a fantastic tip to increase your vision, the best way to release tight harmstrings...etc Spammers have a field day with this kind of OP they plant.

It's not difficult to detect spammers. Consider it was his first post. Now have a look at what a genuine newbie look like: https://www.expatindo.org/community/forums/introductions-and-newbie-corner.38/

Real newbies often start by "hello from Jakarta/Surabaya/Manado/Mataram...etc" not by "Hello I am looking for a sauce pan...etc"
Usually spammers don't give any indications about their location because they copy paste their very same post in dozens of forums/websites all over the world in a few minutes.

Obviously mods/admins have a lot more resources than normal users to further investigate and check if a new user is genuine or not. I crosschecked his IP and registered email address with spammers databases and you have an example of the answer I got in one of my previous posts.

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply. So, I take it that this opens the door for people to flog stuff as in here is a terrific cream for your tight hamstrings. It would seem to be perhaps more productive to go straight for the jugular.
"I am a US marine in Afghanistan and I need help to get some antiques out of the country?"
I am with the Nigerian petroleum industry and have $25 million dollars that I can forward with your co-operation and offer you 5%"

Actually I had one such scam some years ago and I replied saying that I wanted 95% and then got a reply scolding me for being greedy.
