A side benefit of going IndieWeb and posting everything to my own site first instead of to social silos like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinboard, Reading.am, Pocket, Mastodon, etc.: It’s pretty easy to rack up big consecutive day posting streaks in WordPress.

Toaster notification on my computer this morning that reads: "WordPress: New achievement -- You're on a 296-day streak"

My streak is probably much longer as the result of some private and draft posts breaking the chain.

I’ll also mention that from a commonplace book standpoint, it’s far easier to search for content I’ve read or interacted with because it’s all right here on my site (with tags and categories) and I don’t need to remember which of hundreds of sites I may have posted it to.
