Do you have a library card? At my library I can reserve the books I want, and if they don't have them they borrow them from another library in their system, and I get an email when they're ready to be picked up. I also use the app Goodreads to track what I want to read.

If reading physical books is difficult, consider audiobooks as well!

For something sci fi/fantasy but more a serious/intense story:

A Deadly Education / the Scholomance series

Project Hail Mary

For more feel-good sci fi/fantasy:

The House in the Cerulean Sea

A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking

The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet

With friends: D&D or board/card/tabletop games. Pick a night and get together every week or whatever works for everyone. Play the same game or something different each week. Settlers of Catan and Cards Against Humanity are other games that jump to mind for me.

Generally: read, write/paint/draw/model/etc., learn to play an instrument, cook/bake, learn something new via podcast or videos. Most of these things can be done with others if you choose.

I had this exact thing happen in Duolingo. I remember being annoyed, because in school I had learned to say "comment t'appelles-tu" but Duolingo taught me "comment tu t'appelles." Then it seemingly randomly switched back to the original one I knew, like I should have been using that the whole time.

What happened I think, is we left the "s" off of the end, so Duolingo marked it as wrong, but rather than add the "s", it gave a different correction (the more proper way to say it). If you had put the "s" on the end, it would have been accepted as correct.
