I don't think it's super obscure, but I home brew beer and it's a hobby where you can really go deep into the technicalities of tweaking recipes, building equipment, and just the overall process in a way that would probably bore the average non-brewer to death.

Software-Defined Radio. Pretty cheap entry and fun to screw with. I recently moved to the sticks and now there is nothing to find, sadly.
Recently started writing niche essays on video games but haven't had the best time coming up with more ideas and have 0 ability to advertise my own work.
I also have this weird thing wear I take pictures of the cats on cat-product packaging because I'm afraid they'll be forgotten.

I repair and upgrade classic video game consoles. RGB modding NES, Adding HDMI output to a PS1 etc. Sometimes in the case of some NEC consoles like the Turbo Duo R, I'll buy ones that are totally hopeless (capacitors in these thing leak like crazy) and pick away at it for months, I've had some janky looking consoles but I've brought them back from the dead. Always satisfying when then work again.
Handspinning. I do a lot of fiber crafts.
