Occasionally make movie posters for YouTube videos I download, primarily using low-tech means like cropping, layering, etc.

Mainly because I don't know how to do the more advanced stuff, but I find it kind of fun though to try to do similar levels of quality with lower-tech tools. Kind of like coding challenges but with Paint.NET. Lol. (BTW, that's not a link. Lol.)

I used to write Wikipedia articles and blog posts about music if that counts.

Admining a Lemmy instance isn’t especially creative but at least I don’t get paid for it.

I play music at home, sometimes recording it. I have zero interest in monetizing it. The most I’d like to do is collaborate and make music with others.

I also ran a YouTube channel for a few years. Made about twenty cents from that.

Music. I've played guitar for 30 years, can play drums, bass, piano, etc... never earned a dime. Played shows but I'm still in the hole as far as acquired shit.

I thought I didn’t have much to tell, but turns out, I could have said the same. I did earn a tiny bit at one point when playing local venues and recording demos for local bands back then, but it was basically just gas money for the band most of the time lol

Decorating my house

Making small games

Writing poetry

Cooking

I do other creative things, but I've been paid for most of them at one point or another.

Cook, bake, crochet, cross-stitch, oil paint, watercolor, party planning etc I hoard hobbies but don't do any of them professionally since I already have a job. They are all hobbies I enjoy

Creating memes...

I cook for the family. It's not the cooking that's creativity for me, most of the time, it's the menu planning that is the hardest to think through.
