My solution to the "least common denominator" / "greatest common factor" linguistic confusion is to go with "minimum viable X".
So: minimum viable product, minimum viable user, minimum viable topic, etc.
It's both accurate and (I think / hope) immediately understandable.
If things are (or aren't) rolling off your keyboard, adjust the tilt.

It would be great to have tags on each. Displaying a person's name isn't much help, unless I already know them. For example, if it had tags like "Software Developer", "Photography" to denote that blog might pertain to those topics of interest, it might draw me to check them out.
In my fantasy world, blogging & tagging sites & posts would also be a well established part of the p2p/fedi/web protocols.
I'd love to have a url and see what other people tag it with.

Another project that does something similar is https://indieblog.page/.
Hope this project becomes big as well!
It's been on my todo list for a while to make an old school Yahoo-style "web directory" to which anyone can submit a website. This seems like a subset of that for personal blogs.
We have the same discoverability problem that web 1.0 had, and I think it can be solved with the same solutions.

I opened 7 of those websites and they were all about tech by tech people.
I encourage you to explore personal websites outside the tech sphere.

As someone who's working on a few side projects around the topic of personal blogs and personal sites, it's damn hard to find non tech people with blogs. The vast, VAST majority of people interested in having personal sites are, unsurprisingly, people in the tech sphere. I'm not saying it's impossible, i'm just saying it's harder than it looks.
I randomly picked a few and they're not blogs or digital gardens?
Me too. They look like small businesses.
I just started working on https://devblogs.net two weeks ago! Wanted to build something on Cloudflare Workers and D1 SQLite database. Compared to these blog collections, DevBlogs aggregates the posts in a feed.
What happened to technorati?
The solution is to pick the most interesting thing on the list and submit that instead—and then maybe add a comment linking to the list and saying that's where you found it.
