Welcome to /c/blogging!

This is a community for posting interesting, insightful, or even personal blog posts. You can advertise your own blog, or share other blog posts you find interesting.

Since this is the programming instance, expect many posts to be related to computer science. General blogs are still welcome as well!

Rules:

Don't be rude. Duh.
Don't spam your own blog. Try to limit self-promotion to only once or twice per week.

Looking to start your own blog? Check out Bearblog, Write.as, WordPress (which you can host yourself as well).

Hi, I just started trying to blog (video games opinion and I suppose it could fall under reviewing as well) and I feel a bit overwhelmed thinking whether it feels "correct" or if it is missing something.

Currently it is just writing with pictures with it linked where I took it from on the title text option on the images and the publishing that.

Is there any sites or resources one can recommend for reading?

I am more than willing to read any advice anyone would like to share as this is still very new for me.

I am using Blogger, so if there is any tips anyone would like to share in regards to the platform, I am also willing to read those as well.

Stop asking what the opinions of others are and write what you want to. That's my advice.

Thank you,

I will take the advice, I will admit it is difficult for me to just do. I guess what I am do with blogging is a new experience and I am in uncharted waters so to speak which is probably why I have anxiety over it.

I guess with time I will get more comfortable and start to understand better what my needs would be and will have a better idea what I would need to ask
