How is any of those hobby even remotely cringe? I honestly don't understand.

Tiktokking for attention as a job is cringe but making stuff like we did for eons cannot possibly be.

Well both of them require near-autistic levels of attention to detail and knowledge. I used to be a scientist and so having a lab book to track different kombucha experiments satisfies that need, and detailed knowledge is obviously required for mushroom picking (and subsequent eating)
