On my personal site I mostly write about side projects I'm working on like building a Kubernetes cluster out of Raspberry Pis or retrospect on courses I've taken.

On Dev.to I've found the activation energy required for getting a post out much lower. I've been mostly writing about specific topics for the current clasd I'm enrolled in to help me focus and learn the material better. I've found that if I can explain something in a post then I can hopefully do it on an exam.

I don't know how to Tweet well though so I mostly just lurk there.
