My favorite personal blog to read this past year is Phil Eaton's (eatonphil on HN): https://notes.eatonphil.com/.
I enjoy the subject matter he posts about (a lot of systems work and research, primarily), but his other posts are great too.
His post, "Is it worth writing about?" is a nice inspirational one for folks who want to/have been thinking about writing: https://notes.eatonphil.com/is-it-worth-writing-about.html.

Probably the most interesting things are homemade ice cream recipes and a (not very detailed) build journal for the teardrop trailer we made during COVID.
Mostly write about Elixir. Check out the search function. It is a rust library run as WASM in the browser (all the right keywords for HN hehe).

Search library used: https://stork-search.net/
(And yes, I know it is totally overkill to have search when you just got a few articles)

CSS only, no JS. Trying to make it as accessible as possible. Mainly about programming and some art stuff.

https://xenodium.com will hit 10 years in November. It started as a single org file for personal notes (programming, cooking, Emacs, bookmarks, iOS dev, travel). One day, I decided to export it to HTML and make it accessible to me from anywhere. Sorta just became both notes and blog over time…
While the tone of the posts may have evolved a bit, the blog still serves as personal notes/reference of sorts. The tech behind it hasn’t changed a whole lot. It remains a single org file (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xenodium/xenodium.github.i...) with my own ugly elisp hacks, but hey does the job ;-)

I started NLJ back in 2020. It is built with WordPress (hosted on Hetzner VPS and managed with Cloudron). I have published more than 800 articles and 350 short-form posts (almost all posts by me, but my friend has published 30something articles). I write about whatever interests me (I tell myself this means there is something for everyone). Common topics include, but are not limited to, tech (digital ownership, open source software, feeds, and my learning Linux), history (usually American or Roman), old books and poems, anime, visual novels (mainly English translations of freeware NScripter/KiriKiri novels), photos from my walks, fictional dialogues, and occasional commentary about life in NYC.
https://memos.emucafe.org/u/2
I am testing out Memos (https://github.com/usememos/memos) for short-form notes and microblog-style posts, but very much a side project next to NLJ. Neat little tool.
Unlike many people here, I don't like to write hundreds of mediocre posts. Instead, I prefer very few posts, that unfortunately are still mediocre.
If you're tired of all the perfection that exists on the internet, where every piece is deeply insightful and changes your life, I'd encourage you to read my articles, which only promise to shorten it:

I don't have many posts, but some ideas in the pipeline that I'm working on. Planning on documenting a lot more about the hardware tinkering I am doing.
I also added a bunch of secrets and games to the website, with the idea that the source code can be used to explore and learn. There's even an unsolved crypto puzzle in there, but it seems to be a little too hard considering it's been unsolved for over 10 years now.
Do you have an RSS feed? I am currently trying to consume more Finnish text to aid in my language learning. I feel that your blog would aid me as I also have interests in what you blog about.

I try to focus on software and everything I've encountered through projects throughout my software career, but often a general post about thoughts on life / software in general sneak in here & there.
My goal is always to share real world examples and code snippets, instead of the 1,000th iteration of the todo app.

It's a semi-regular, assorted blog about my adventures and experiences in life. Generally semi-focused on minimalism, computers and life in general.
It's powered by https://mataroa.blog/, which is very minimal and a joy to use.
