I love my blog. I post like maybe 4 times a year when I feel suitably inspired.
I find HN far and away the most random aggregator. Reddit is very reliable for me. When I share my posts on HN they almost never get traction. But then they randomly do months later when someone shares the same post! Kind of annoying.
My blog is artisanal handcrafted HTML and CSS. I honestly find it much easier and simpler than generators.
I currently host on Cloudflare for free. I was previously on Netlify.

- aksss 2y ago> I love my blog. Ha, ditto. I’m sure I’m my own biggest fan and reader. I’m making content I want to see more of on the Internet, and am proud of it! :)
- forrestthewoods 2y agoMy blog is honestly one of the best things I’ve done for my career. Writing skills are super valuable but no programmers are taught how to write. It’s not a skill we explicitly develop. Learning how to express ideas for various audiences is super useful. I’ve gotten, imho, pretty good at both writing and presenting and I attribute a lot of that to 10+ years of blog writing.
