Do you still code as a hobby, or is it only a job now? (discuss.online)

I have 7 years of experience, at this point software development is mostly a job. I have hobbies that have nothing to do with it.

I'm curious to see if this is the general trends, or if people are still fidgeting with side projects even after years in the industry.

I am on a computer all day for work and like to spend time on forums as well. When I get a chance I prefer to do the opposite of coding in my free time. I want to do something almost all physical such cooking, baking, gardening etc.
