Absolutely. Have been writing on my blog (https://lbrito1.github.io/blog/ https://lbrito1.github.io/blog/) for 8 years.
>Does the time spent writing feels worth it to you?
Yes but YMMV. I enjoy writing. I was the kid at school that teachers hated grading because I filled the full space for answers in exams.
>Did it help to get noticed/ find jobs or other opportunities?
Hard to prove if it made an objective difference in hiring, but in all jobs I've had since blogging my bosses/hiring-committee coworkers mentioned that they enjoyed something I wrote in the blog. Also quite a few interviewers have mentioned it in the final rounds.
>Do you learn something new from it?
For sure. I learned that my phone-server survived HN frontpage. :)
