A collecting & curating hobby is one whose core activity is acquiring and organising a collection — stamps, coins, records, ephemera. On HobbyStack, the tag is assigned when games, contemplative practice, or community is the primary thing you spend session time on, not a side effect. Popular examples include Coin Collecting (Numismatics), Collecting Vinyl Records, LEGO Building.
