Nobody cares about your blog, but you should keep writing!

The author started a blog but has considered stopping due to lack of readership. Though few may read the blog, writing it can serve as notes for the future, help release and clarify ideas, and give a sense of freedom. Even if the ideas are not original, sharing one’s personal view can enrich them. Ultimately, the author decides to publish the post regardless of who may read it.

Do you maintain a blog? Are you getting value out of the practice?

    I’ve been writing notes about how to do certain things in some programming languages, how to do certain things on the command line, etc. and I have all this in Obsidian for my own reference. I started a blog a few months back (a static website generator) and I don’t expect many people to come across it as the things I write about are pretty niche. But it’s something that I can put time into now so when future me needs to reference something, it’s just there (rather than haphazard notes that I will need to piece together).
