Bear Blog Question Challenge
Read through this post which lead me to this post and i was like hey, i am not tagged or anything, but i think this might be cool to do! so here we are! also i don't know how tagging works here anyway or is there even any tagging feature w
I will answer the questions!
1. Why did you make the blog in the first place?
Twitter had just become a hellhole of an app and started doing this AI thing and using our posts for generative AI, so that includes my artwork on twitter! At the same time i feel like social media is not good for me anyway as i always lose against algorithm, and it's very messy as i always share stuff from others, and how i wanted to make deeply written progress entry about my creations, and other stuff i am displeased with social media like how there's multiple socials that exist and i have to update every single one. In panic, i looked through what should i do, and find a video recommending that i should make a website instead (i will link the video if i can find it again later). And besides that, i have always wanted to make blogs, but it kinda discontinued? But this twitter thing forces me to take action.
2. Why did you choose Bearblog?
I found this video (will link it later) about how to make your own website after researching, and bearblog was mentioned as one of the option. The reason i stayed with bearblog is that because it's simple enough to start blogging, cute presets, and easy to understand, since i know nothing about HTML or CSS or whatever, and now that i kinda want to change it up it kinda works! It is not intimidating for a beginner.
3. Have you blogged on other platforms before?
Actually i did, when i was a child i do have a blog in blogger, and my best friend would always comments on it, it has like this Doraemon theme that my sister helped me to put on.
I also have a blog on blogger a year (?) before i have bearblog, and i don't even understand how to change like the navigation part, and the presets are boring imo w. This one is the blog left discontinued because i was dissatisfied with how it looked, and at that time i focused on daily life blog, so not that interesting to continue, i thought
Also i tried on some others before bearblog when the twitter thingy happens, but i couldn't really understand how it works so i kinda just deleted it w
4. Do you write your posts directly in the editor or in another software?
Directly in the editor, both in my phone and laptop. If i don't have internet at that time, then notes app, but very rarely.
5. When do you feel most inspired to write?
Honestly i haven't found a pattern w it's just comes naturally. Sometimes it's not even inspired, i just say to myself that i have to write and then i write. But mostly when looking at others blog maybe? Especially cool looking ones on like nekoweb neocities etc, i want to make my blog looks a lot more cooler.
6. Do you publish immediately after writing or do you let it simmer a bit as a draft?
I do publish it immediately after i think the post counts as finished. If not finished, i would put it as a draft. Sometimes not even finished, i would still publish it w.
7. Your favorite post on your blog?
"Habit to think "I want to die"" I think! I have been working on it and now it's somewhat rare for me to say it to myself! I still have this habit to slap myself in the face lightly to make me realize that i am real and alive human being, though. ah, i haven't written about that...?
8. Any future plans for your blog? Maybe a redesign, changing the tag system, etc.?
Everything is in my to do list on my homepage! But yeah maybe the tag system, will add it later in to do's. Also i want to make secrets or funny buttons too i think that would be cool actually!!!
