I have a blog because I like having a blog. It has made me neither rich nor famous.

Most prolific visitor is probably my mom and some bot out of Singapore.

This isn't about blogging per se. Its about commercial product-to-market fit. That market now favors short centralized video content.

Does anybody know a tool for making a 32 page A5 zine like Bumb books [1] for people with little to no layout tool knowledge?

I like this a lot, simple, elegant, unpretentious, walking down memory lane.

I would try to take DINO v3 [1] for a spin, for that specific use-case. Or, don't laugh, the Nano Banana [2]

I'm cynical and don't fear a world in which people can't verify photos for their authenticity.

I fear (channeling a brave new world) that they simply will not care.
