Owning and managing a blog of your own offers a feeling of complete control over content decision in a world where majority of content is on social media platforms. My favorite part of it is that I get to decide how good the experience will be for my content consumers.

The web is plagued with crawlers in search of anything in the form of an email address. They scrape personal websites, public repositories on github, and anywhere indexable.
