could you elaborate on your second point? As in, are there any specific ways you sort posts other than chronologically?

I like the metaphor of a digital garden. A garden is a work in progress, not a finished product. I publish things and refine them over time. Sorting posts by publishing date does not make sense if they get complete rewrites on occasion.

I have a "timeless posts" section above the stream for posts that are always worth a read. I also have sections for projects and recipes.

The website I live for is organised more like a knowledge base. I also review the content there frequently, even though I publish infrequently. You can find a link in my profile.

Ahh, true. I need to find a way to add sorting by recent updates to my site.
