Revscene.net
CKNW.com
Theprovince.com
Random Google things a few times a day to search something real quickly for 5-10 minutes
&
Work related websites
Honestly, I don't even use the internet that much while I'm at home anymore. I'll read some stuff on here on my phone every now and then when I'm bored, but I've a dozen news channels to watch to catch up on anything and everything. I barely need to use a computer when outside of work. I have Facebook but I think my last post was close to 2 years ago. I only use it for the memories thing to see what I did on this day in the past and to keep up with the stupid invites I get from people for bbq's/birthdays/dinners etc
Apps I use:
Whatsapp for group chats
Gasbuddy
Occasional Instagram
Banking apps

maybe i'm older, but i gave up on reading shit on websites as you have to always question shit if it's real or not.
1) rotten tomatoes, to check if a movie is good.
2) revscene
3) FB
4) aliexpress
5) uwants to download music / p-bay to download movies
6) pornhub...
that's it.

Various subreddits - Starting with whatever game I'm really into (currently Apex Legends), then the usuals - HongKong, Cocktails, NFL, Wrestling. Reddit is kind of shit though, but it's a good way to get a quick glimpse of generally what people think. If I'm REALLY bored I'll hit up All, and also some porn
Revscene, obviously
Twitter, I follow a few friends and wrestlers I like
Instagram, same, slightly wider range of people I follow. Some athletes, tattoo artists I like, pretty girls
Youtube, I go there daily for some channels I visit, usually related to cocktails or video games.
Facebook, mostly to just keep up with family members
Twitch, I will usually have this on in the background. Used to only watch Hearthstone, now I only watch Apex Legends.
That's about it... Also media.. I subscribe to a few podcasts (video game podcasts, wrestling, JRE), I subscribe to Netflix, WWE, NJPW on and off. I try not to pirate stuff anymore whenever possible. Except TV, I pirate all the American TV I watch, but it's all broadcast stuff (over the air, FOX, NBC, CBS), so whatevs. I'm not waiting a year for it to show up on Netflix 
I just realized that I don't really read any content sites, unless I come across it elsewhere. Which of course was my career for over a decade, so that kinda sucks. Everything is aggregated now.

For forums I regularly check Garagejournal.com and sometimes here, ls1tech, honda-tech forums.
I spend the most time on Youtube watching car and tech vids.
While Youtube is running in one window I'm searching through craigslist in another.
I check Instagram multiple times a day, Facebook maybe once.
Ebay and Amazon and now Alibaba are used daily.

Revscene and twitter really
I gave up on IG, got tired of it. Then google and YouTube for education and entertainment.
Kinda funny because forums kinda dried up in general when imo they are a far better discussion medium than things like reddit I feel

Reddit I use as a way to condense news, games and sports articles, but it's a hellhole otherwise.
