What are you on about lol. Reading and playing video games are hobbies. Do you think the average person is playing games for a job? And yes there are a bunch of nerds out there doing these things for fun who want to date. You likely won’t find them on fuck apps, but every other coworker is playing something. Having “no hobby” would be sitting on your phone for 8 hours scrolling on twitter, then switching over to YouTube, then switching over to discord
Being poor does affect people’s lives, but plenty of poor people still get laid. If you can play games, then you’re not at the level of poverty where work consumes every second of your waking time and “hobbies” are a waste of time because you need to feed yourself
Anyway, as someone whose hobbies are solitary and don’t contribute to any positive outcomes in my social life, people value hobbies because
It provides alone time for all parties
It provides something to talk about
it shows you have goals and purposes in your life outside of breathing and working
If applicable, the hobby allows for collaboration and intimacy

and even that can morph into a hobby.
It’s how mediocre podcasts are born!
