Maybe there’s a similar post to be written about whether to start a blog and write essays? It works for some people, but for me, writing an an article that I think is good enough to publish (even on my obscure blog) takes all day and the extra effort doesn’t seem worthwhile, compared to writing comments and sharing links.
I have definitely shifted more to commenting here and there. I may get back to my blogs but I've sort of been faffing around since semi-retiring a few months back but maybe after I get back from my next trip and wrap up some home projects.
