This is good advice for people whose livelihood depends on the attention of anonymous strangers. For everyone else, it’s probably ok to ignore.

It's also just kind of cool and fun to hack together a personal website

You don't even need attention - it could be a public blog where you share about the things you learn. You never know who it's going to help. That's primarily my motivation with the blog.

Totally. If I would tell 10-year-old me that I have my own website on my own domain, it would be seen as a shocking development. I find it really cool to be able to have a corner of the internet that is just mine.

Indeed. If you only use social media to connect with friends and family... good luck getting them to visit literally any other website.

I still get a rush with a new server on the internet!!! (especially my latest host: 12 core new gen epyc instances with 48G RAM.)

Yes, and we're on _Hacker_ News after all - doing this just for fun should be sufficient reason in and of itself
