I’ve been unemployed for around six months, that’s actually part of why I asked is to see what other people do with so much free time.
I had this problem back in the great recession and joined habitat for humanity. Met some weirdos, was pretty good.
New skills? I spend my free time contributing to FOSS projects to pick up new things, or learning CAD, or soldering, on and on. Always been pretty good at filling my time, just need to learn the relaxing part.
