I am currently thinking about redoing my #blog. Nur just regarding the appearance itself, but also about the contents.
Currently it is solely about #programming stuff. But I thought about changing the topics to also include more lifestyle topics like #bikepacking trips, #book reviews, some thoughts or #politics.
Though I am really unsure how to tackle this. Doing multiple #blogs or mixing that range of topics feels weird.
Any ideas?

@vknabel I'm pretty sure I've seen blogs that cover roughly that range of topics from other biking programmers--so, I think you would fit right in with the general craziness of personal blogs!
That said, using tags (and/or making multiple feeds, e.g. like on https://jamesvandyne.com/blog/) would be nice for readers wanting to browse only one kind of content.
(..Last but not least, you might be interested in the current IndieWeb carnival, Intersecting Interests: https://zacharykai.net/notes/icfeb26)

@bojidar_bg thanks the encouraging words! Sure tags are a must. Once multiple big categories arise, separate feeds might make sense.
I'll also have a look at the IndieWeb carnival. I've never heard of it before!

I guess the bottom line is: it's my blog, my rules.
