What I see is not so much the death of blogging, people certainly still do it and there are always going to be people doing that. Even when diaries were private and only for themselves. The death is in communication and engagement (not the growth hacker kind, the human kind) amongst writers and readers. I don’t think most people are looking for a huge audience, but even a small number of people who regularly read and give the author some kind of feedback is a big incentive. These days there is so so much noise, comment sections are dead due to SEO/spam, and it’s easy to feel like you’re just shouting into the ether without any hope of human connect across any amount of space or time.
