Even moderate hearing loss is very odd.
It's not until I stick my hearing aids in that I realise how much I'm missing out on - mostly birdsong, but also little household noises.
My hearing aids sometimes feel like a lot of bother, almost a cruel imposition, but the benefits are immense.
Get your hearing checked - you may not know what you are missing.
The RNID has a very good online screening tool https://rnid.org.uk/information-and-support/take-online-hearing-check/
