Just a small word of unasked-for-advice... consider compressing your images further! Even ignoring bandwidth concerns, a 1.3MB image takes a while to paint :)

Can I use this image on my blog?

I will off course link to you site. It’s to illustrate a point about my blogspot blog haha…

I’ve been looking to switch over to something else. But I’ve been actively blogging since 2006 and I haven’t found a good enough way and platform to switch over to.

Would you consider participating in a private beta of https://exotext.com/, a simple blogging platform I'm building? (example blog: https://rakhim.exotext.com/)

If so, please send me an email: hello at rakhim.org

Of course, go ahead! Please, share a link to your blog, I'm gonna add it to minifeed.net :)

(I'll update my website soon and will make the licensing clearer.)

My sites/blogs are: https://www.janromme.com, https://www.seriousaboutech.com and https://independentlypoor.com.

This picture was used here:https://www.janromme.com/2025/04/are-there-any-good-blogging...

Thanks a lot. That graph is useful, and a nice shout-out is always good.

I love that graph! So many occurrences of "that's me" or "I know somebody exactly like that".

*scnr:

ooof.. this chart is making my day, not because of it's content, but it's presentation. Apparently it only works if you have very different scales for x and y axis. As you have the same metrics on both of them (number of posts), it only worked if like x axis is from 1 to 10 while y axis is either log or from 1 to 100 or so. Or you choose a differnt metric for the x axis, like "share of posts about blog setups".

My thoughts exactly! Originally I wanted to also add a 2nd vertical axis on the right to signify "share of posts about blog setups".
