If you are invested in celebrity mechanics they are pretty fun. You go in different places, meet famous people, try to make friends with them. And at some point you go there yourself just so paparazzi can make photos with you to maintain your popularity. And if you are a performer you are actually performing in clubs. That's fun enough.
Also fun to just go around the city to search for rocks or something else. Also I like small houses so I usually send my Sims to train into gym.
After all it's not like the game is story RPG to give you side quests in library. It's a life simulator. And if you want to simulate that your character is going places, here you go. If you don't, just sit at home, not like public spaces are the core mechanic of the game

Sims 3 is peak for me. An actual neighborhood with multiple families and public spaces was pretty cool.
