When blogging topics pop up again

It's kind of fun when conversations and challenges go around in the blogging scene, even some older ones return from time to time, and I wonder which one's next.

It’s been really nice to see the “Ten Pointless Facts About Me” challenge trending once more after Peter and Kev decided to participate half a year after the original post by David started it all.

I actually already participated on this challenge, so in case you missed it or if you are wondering why I have not written anything about it, feel free to check out my answers, the seventh one might surprise you! 🤯

It’s interesting to see how themes come and go, just like how yesterday I wrote about friendships after the discourse going around it for months.

I remember a few years back everyone was talking about a reality without Javascript or CSS (including me), and it sparked a bunch of interest conversations from the webdev blogging scene. Simpler times…

Things come and go all the time, sometimes I was there, and sometimes I didn’t even know they were a thing everyone was discussing.

In a way, it’s nice to be unaware, there is some pressure that comes when everyone is saying something and you feel that you should do the same, but when a theme or idea sparks naturally instead of coming from a bandwagon, it’s nice too, it’s more you.

Anyway, not that long of a blogpost really, just wanted to share some links I guess.

What are some of the challenges or themes you wish to see again?
