In an era where it’s common to post on platforms like Threads or X, I deliberately choose to use this Hatena Blog. I once tried using note for writing, but I gave up halfway through. As for Ameba, I’m just not personally a fan, so I’ve decided to stick with Hatena Blog.
I believe that what I’ve developed here, where nobody seems to look, is something that probably nobody else is doing.
It’s not that I’m uninterested in others’ blogs, but I intentionally refrain from looking. Going out into the world hasn’t brought me much positive experience…
By the way, according to the website analytics tool “Similarweb,” note has 77.6 million users, Hatena Blog 69 million, and Ameba Blog 189.6 million.
I’ve been considering whether or not to use Google AdSense, but with only a 4% approval rate, it seems quite difficult… But of course, it’s Google we’re talking about. Why did I think I could pass that screening in the first place?
So, I’ll continue using Hatena Blog. Whether people are reading or not, it doesn’t matter—just keep doing what needs to be done! The sun is watching over us! That’s the old Edo spirit I’ve embraced.
It’s just social media, but still social media. I started with no expectations, just hoping that my effort to improve myself might reach someone.
Please take a look if you happen to come across it.
Today is a day to prepare postcards. I’ll do my best to get them ready! 😊
