The TLDR is that I back in 2015 published some C++ related posts that got way more traction than I originally anticipated, and given the subscriptions to the RSS-feed I felt like I could not live up to the contents people perhaps expected.

On the other hand, I have no idea what people _actually_ expected to be published, but in my head I have for what it's worth created this nightmare scenario where I post something not related to C++, and all those readers would be /pinged and disappointed.

Impressions and clicks are a confident booster, though the fear of disappointing or letting people down because they expect "better" content is something I for sure struggle with

Got you :) I advise you to work on it and get over it - it's far more satisfying to mostly (not always) write about things others are interested in; people find value in your work and you have more impact at the same time; it's an overall win-win.
