By commercialism, I’m aiming at a mix of spending a lot and sifting through bloated business models (e.g. this or that accessory/equipment, microtransactions, etc.). Feel like many can relate to this sort of commercial fatigue, and yet it creeps even into hobbies where one tries to unwind.
Lately I’ve picked up reading more again, as thanks to libraries I’m able to do just that, but I’m wondering what some other, less obvious options* might be.

This is mainly for the going outside, walking folks. I enjoy a good walk from time to time, but I’m interested in activities that are a little less obvious.
Isn’t the 3D printer parts, accessories and maintenance just part of the commercialsm OP is trying to avoid?
(I want a 3D printer, by the way…)
Public library
Wait. You’re saying that public libraries have 3D printing services?
Yes, they do in my city. Also public universities. My local uni engineering dept will print for only the cost of filament.
Some of them in the US do. Or you could send the blueprints to China and they can ship it to you
