" I feel like I should have a blog. Specifically, a tech blog. Everything points towards it! I like coding, I like reading, I particularly like reading blog posts. So then, why don't I have one?! "

Well, do you like writing? Does the main thing that should point toward it point toward it? At the end this person says

"I think the gist of it is... blogging is clearly made for people who enjoy writing and/or sharing. And I think it's okay if I'm not particularly fond of any of those two things. I shouldn't succumb to the peer pressure of thinking that everybody but me has a blog. So, if I were to have a blog, the motivation should be noble and straightforward: "I like to write and share my experiences". "

Well there you go, perfectly reasonable conclusion. Not sure if all the middle stuff was necessary, to be honest.

Following the answers to this thread, it seems you have to justify yourself for not having a blog.

If you plainly answer "I don't want to", it's not acceptable. It is mandatory, like having a public GitHub, and so on.

I'm happy for people that like writing — in fact I love reading. I'm happy for those that participate in Open Source. I still do prefer to participate in family activities, playing video games, working in my metal workshop...
