The “Submit” link just takes me to the Tally home page. I wonder if the link is broken of if they exceeded a limit.

This is a known bug. There are form links elsewhere in these comments.

I agree with you.. but there is a lot of issues related to blogging that has caused it's decline in popularity. (I.e. content aggrigation, cross connection social comment features, reduction of spam in discovering/blog reputation, etc)

For me I have a blog but I'm struggling to write for it because I don't have an audience that makes the blog valuable for me.

I have written a dozen blog engines in whatever language caught my fancy at the time. In the end I realized I'm writing my blog for myself, not for an audience. The value is in sorting my mind, not someone reading what I wrote. I have moved off online publishing since then. Now I just journal in Zim desktop wiki or even on paper and you and I are better off for it. I'm just guessing, but maybe question your desire to have an audience.

i've had dozens but just write for yourself. I find it hilarious and humbling but the most enjoyable is ironing out the inconsistencies or gaps in my own thoughts. Have the cake or eat it? It can be left as an open question too. Asking the right questions is useful.

Every year or so someone will reach out to me based on something I wrote. It’s really gratifying to solve someone’s problem.

Similarly my band refuses to release an album until we have a huge audience!

Seriously though, write for you! The eyeballs will come later

Would love to hear if you think there's a solution to this.

I have some ideas, which I wrote about here: https://github.com/yakkomajuri/recess/blob/main/manifesto-is...

Curious if you think this makes sense.

You call them issues but I prefer to think of them as a filter that keeps blog content high value exactly because it discourages those who are not primarily interested in sharing information but are after some other goal.

I wrote a little blog program because I find the blog format (articles sorted by date) convenient for reading about things someone did, so I figured when I do things I should also put them in that format. But it turns out I don't do a lot.

True,

And it will be great when a service such as this has a auto-crawler, categorizer LLM that takes all the content in the repo and groups them together based on content context tagging - so a diasproa of blog posts from anyone/where about [TOPIC] could be groupded, and even compared...

"Show me all the blog posts on [TOPIC] but show me the top opposing opinions on said [TOPIC]"

Or "show me all the folks who have consensus on [SUBJECT]"

etc.

That sounds very useful. I wonder if that might be more in the wheel house of a search engine like the folks at Kagi? I'm trying to think of what is the closest thing to this that exists.

Gather what properties you can dissect, sort the props of the search results by how many share them, display the most frequent x with a more button.
