npub1grx4wzqldf8clxusxpz78adjcukkqvdkhf8amsdhr6sy3ctuu2fqvsuxfe (npub1grx…uxfe) I disagree on the blog angle. The problem isn't with content being uninteresting or undesirable, it's discoverability. Google has killed discoverability. And WordPress subscriptions don't make up for that. There's no discovery algorithm that boosts popular WordPress posts within a common timeline.
This is something the Fediverse can do. And is one reason why WP seems so interested in their ActivityPub plug-in. Walled gardens like Substack and Medium only destroy discovery even further.
