I don't think personal blogs have made a comeback. Most modern blogs are ego-boosting camouflage, the same content you'd find on social media. This kind of content isn't intended to disseminate useful information, but rather to hijack your emotions and force you to react in a way you've been told. It's a form of psychic vampirism.

I have fond memories and miss profoundly the innocuous purity of 1994-2005 internet era. Back then, the content was created mostly by enthusiasts, not by attention seekers.

    just like the OP blog
