To stop me circling through the pages of doom - I've just had to hide a bunch of threads here too as it's like the first days of Covid...

I like reddit - or parts of it! And browsing ebay for old nostalgic things is quite calming but more suggestions are welcome.

And yes, I know the real answer is to put the phone down and read a book instead :D

I recently came across some YouTube channels by various people talking about Jane Austen. Would they interest you? Things like Who betrays Elizabeth to Lady Catherine? They might inspire you to actually read again.
YouTube can bring its own problems of course.
Food blogs? I can spend a long time reading recipes on line.

Just a suggestion but If you like reddit then perhaps have a look Emkay on Youtube.
Basically they read amusing Reddit posts. From there you can pick sub reddits you might be interested in such as r/holup, or r/facepalm.

I love window-swap.com
basically people set a webcam up sharing the view out of their window, can be anywhere in the world. I find it fascinating and have spent an hour or two every now and then clicking through the options. It's not live but some people have music playing in the background, or their pets in the foreground it's lovely.
