I have seen plenty of people putting up huge barriers of entry for themselfes before trying out a new hobby

Oh yeah my mom is just like that. She wants to try out stuff, but doesn't because getting into any hobby is "expensive" and she won't put the cost upfront before knowing if she'll like it or not. And she ends up doing nothing. She's retired and does absolutely nothing. It's heartbreaking. And I can't event convince her that if she wants to try out something, she could either ask for stuff on christmas/birthdays or go for a cheap, janky setup first and upgrade later.
