Sometimes I complete my daily tasks faster than I expect, getting a lot of free time. What do you do with your free time? I scroll memes and stuff, but that takes about 30 minutes, and I have ~2-3 hours left. And I don't really know what I could spend it on.

I read books or I usually work on some personal project or I watch youtube. It just depends on the day and also what your company allows.
My company allows me pretty much anything. Thanks for sharing :)
I'd be so happy to have free time :P But if I had surely I'd try to refactor something, work in a small project for the company, study something on Coursera, read the RSS fee
I work on my personnel projects, reading & explore for cool things on github. :))
research/learning - blogs, github, personal stuff, pluralsight. All that being said... free time?
I'm always trying to improve my skills, workflow, etc. Even if it's just taking a little rest in between tasks to make sure everything is done correctly. I watch youtube videos, read articles and blog posts, test new theories out.
I never have nothing to do.
That's bad, when you have free time you should use it for fun or you'll end up stressed, i know it sounds super good to "learn more" but everyone need some fun.
Learning more is fun! :D
Kudos for that! I always try to keep up with technology and learn new stuff and free work hours are the best time to do so :)
I also try to optimize my current workflow. So... I could not agree more with you
Exactly what I do, learning now stuffs is where the fun starts.
Clean code.
Find places where the application can be made faster. And also, less data hungry so that people on slower networks can use the app.
Meta-dev - Developing stuff that makes developing stuff faster. :)
Add a cool new feature. write some automatic tests, build an internal tool to make more free time in the future, learn something new on Youtube tech conferences, or play some ping-pong :D
I normally read articles on javascript, php, build systems, whatever I am interested in or might be related to my current tasks for the week
I go to community sites and try to answer people's queries. It helps you keep your skills sharp and gain free real world knowledge.
And, even if you can't answer but are otherwise interested in the question, it often causes you to research things.
Definitely. More than half the knowledge I have gained through researching those questions, developing solutions for them and reading other response who may approach the problem differently than you do.
Watch youtube videos, animes and twitter.
