I do hope indie blogging makes a comeback. When the only objective of the post is for the author to ‘scream into the void’, it’s refreshing in this day and age.
As someone who’s been writing online for almost three decades, I don’t think blogs ever went away—they just became a smaller percentage of the overall Internet.
From personal experience I can tell you that they are coming back. And a lot of blogs never left. Granted, compared to how many people are on social media the number seems small but that’s ok imo.
