> Does the time spent writing feels worth it to you?
Yes. I write for myself (and reference some of my posts years later) but unexpectedly some of my posts have helped other people and that's a great feeling.
> Did it help to get noticed/ find jobs or other opportunities?
Not yet! Although I think it has encouraged a lot of other behaviors that might have helped to get noticed or find other opportunities.
> Do you learn something new from it?
That's generally the reason I do it – to document things I've learned.
> Writing up my thoughts in presentable state took too much time/effort. Right now, I simply save my notes to my personal Notion for future reference.
IMO that's good enough. If you want to make your writing public don't waste time trying to make it "presentable" - just get it "good enough" and publish. Or slap a giant "DRAFT" label at the top.
