Yeah it fell into one of those revival hypes like common place books and zettelkasten that somehow makes people act like the concepts are brand new or long lost. Which is why I like Hoare's 'Click Around and Find Out' article because he's like "news flash: we've been here the whole time!"
For me, my dreamwidth is very much a separate entity to my website, where my website felt to me like any posts need to be complete and set in stone. Thus I update it even less often than Dw. So "digital gardening" has appealed to me in the vein of not even having to make a new post about something, but simply going back to the original page and adding on "this bit is new" or "I've changed my mind" with timestamps and without linking to other pages that people might not even click on. With a bonus of not having another damn html file to deal with on my end lol.
