It's probably hard to have a blog that keeps getting a lot of views. I think you should re-read your post "1 year of blogging" and think about why you are blogging, what upsides there are etc. - no matter if you have tons of readers or not.

Some comments:

1. The date and post titles don't line up on your blog page and it makes it unpleasant to read. https://tsk.bearblog.dev/blog/

2. It looks like you are quite young. Have you figured out your desired audience demographics and what you want to write about?

If you're writing life advice posts for the HN audience, who are on average older and further along in their careers than you, may not take.

As an older dude, the kinds of posts I typically appreciate from younger people are exploratory posts (I.e. "Have you seen this new tech?" and "People are starting to enjoy $foo". But I'm an old dude, we're not a valuable demographic -- at least in the eyes of the young. :)

3. You've been at it a year. It's going to take longer to gain real traction, but when/if you do, your numbers should grow more quickly as subscribers share valued posts.

4. Subscribed. I don't know whether I'll stick around, but I like the breadth of topics and the post frequency is just about right for me.
