As someone who would like to blog but doesn't, because I don't put in the effort:

> I am afraid to blog.

Don't be.

> I could write about my career and my hobby, but those do not seem to be interesting for others.

Says who? Let others be the judge.

> My opinion may be interesting, but it is risky because something I write may come back to offend others one day, or get me in trouble.

This one is tricky but its easy: be careful with humor as that tends to be a source of social faux pas. Steer clear from politics. Stay on topic.

example: I was reading a blog about Linux desktop critique which devolved into a stupid rant about RMS and woke politics. Hard fail on the authors part.

> One time ago I considered blogging anonymously about the economy but doing so anonymously felt disingenuous.

Many people throughout history have wrote many things under anonymous pen names. It's fine.

Anonymity isn't a guarantee. But with reasonable op sec e.g. don't use your nick elsewhere, don't tell people about your blog, don't promote under your name, you're pretty safe so long as you mostly stay away from politically controversial issues. (Which may be why some people want to blog of course, but I have no interest.) Frankly, you're pretty safe so long as you stay away from polarizing topics and kicking hornet nests in any case but anonymity does add another layer of protection. Of course, you don't get professional benefit either if that's a concern.
