I like the way you formulate things. It’s similar similar to me, these periods of over fixation on something. Then something else. And I believe keeping these notes on Linux public is also helpful for both you and some (random or not) users. I try to avoid too personal information in the posts, but sometimes I think it doesn’t even matter. E.g. I was obfuscating some things like MAC addresses, then I thought what if I won’t, what would happen? Is there any attack surface? Still, I design this blogging system (my current hyper fixation) as to have most things public, with some private notes when necessary. As some bonus (or not), I have close to zero motivation to write for myself. Yet writing publicly or to someone is captivating and I have this motivation. Even in those cases when not many people read me. Or even when there’s nobody at all. Right now I have my blog on my Raspberry Pi, I want to polish some things here and there before deploying it publicly. And yet it’s truly interesting to work on, for some reason.

I wish more people would do that. I’d love to read some ‘life journey’ kind of honest blog of some total rando, given that person would write honestly and not hustling, trying to sell something to someone. But rather writing stupid ordinary things, their life reflections, that type of thing. I’m willing to have a blog like that for myself too. But I just cannot come up with the implementation: what should it be? Just a randomly generated domain? Should I obscure names and places? I thought of using some rare language (e.g. Finnish) to also support that language, learn it, and avoid having too many readers I don’t welcome. But that is trivial to translate, so I’m not really sure. I want both honest content and not being attacked personally (especially irl) by some people while expressing myself. Some content, like political, sometimes is not even safe to publish, depending on the topic and the whereabouts of the person. That’s some completely different topic, there are should be plenty of examples, but the indie web I explored was quite poor on that. Even to get some ideas. Perhaps, I may make more attempts on this. I don’t know.

Yeah, sorry:) have a great night, it’s late now here in my place.
