I've started blogging again. My reasons are: 1. Journaling. I think time went by really fast with the lockdown. It's been 2 years but it looks like nothing happened, when in fact a lot did. There are bits of evidence of my work in social media, including HN, but quitting FB made me lose some of that evidence. And the evidence of my past existence was one of the things keeping me from quitting social media. 2. A variation of your c, to understand a topic better. Most of the time when I write something here, it's to have my thoughts criticised. But that's not even necessary most of the time. Once thoughts are down on text, there's plenty of holes for self-criticism. Blogging puts it out there in a form that welcomes criticism, which forces you to iterate on your thoughts.
