There’s a difference between not stopping, and actively giving permission. It’s like complaining you got robbed when you left your front door wide open with a giant neon sign saying come in and take what you want.

https://montaigne.io/ is my small project! It's a third iteration of it. For a few years I had following setup: 1. keep files in dropbox 2. sync them and publish automatically using montaigne.io Now I switched and instead of Dropbox I use Apple Notes.

This is awesome, I will give it a try

I've found it worth doing. My blog (xeiaso.net, formerly christine.website) is the main way that I get employed at this point. It also helps that people link it here a lot. After 100 articles or so writing got a lot easier and now people rely on my blog for a lot of things. I think it's worth it, but I've also been exclusively self-hosting it. I currently have the code (and writing) open source on GitHub ( https://gi…

I’m publishing it regularly, although not on a weekly cadence anymore.
It was totally worth it - I got several amazing contacts out of it and one job offer. Plus I’m learning a lot.
