            &lt;p&gt;So, I guess there goes 2025. I’m a bit late on the wrap up post, though as much as I’d like to blame a cold I’ve been dealing with for a while (lol I wrote that several days ago when drafting, and I&amp;rsquo;ve still just now gotten around to posting my finished draft), it’s mostly just laziness. All things considered, it’s been a pretty eventful year for myself - namely that I left my job and returned to my home state. It’s been a little busy, and finding local work has been a slog, but all things considered it’s been a good year (and a very extended vacation has been nice).&lt;/p&gt;

            &lt;p&gt;Another wild and wacky year is wrapping up, and with it the customary year end wrap up/retrospective. This year I posted a total of 11 posts&lt;sup id=&#34;fnref:1&#34;&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;#fn:1&#34; class=&#34;footnote-ref&#34; role=&#34;doc-noteref&#34;&gt;1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;, two being update/revised posts and nine standalone posts. My longest post (by far) was my revised microblogging comparison post at 15,411 words&lt;sup id=&#34;fnref:2&#34;&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;#fn:2&#34; class=&#34;footnote-ref&#34; role=&#34;doc-noteref&#34;&gt;2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;sup id=&#34;fnref:3&#34;&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;#fn:3&#34; class=&#34;footnote-ref&#34; role=&#34;doc-noteref&#34;&gt;3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;, and my shortest was my pickles/sauerkraut recipe post at 722 words (the only post under 1k words). My average post length was 4991 words, my median post length being a similar 5169 words.&lt;/p&gt;

            &lt;p&gt;It is (or was at least) a new year and I thought I would reflect on my 2023 posts and talk about what kind of content I follow. I originally thought about doing this on Dec 31st, but I tend to work pretty slowly on posts so here I am whenever this actually gets finished and goes live. Since June I posted a total of thirteen posts, two of which were more generic updates (a quick first post and a notice about a URL change), which leaves me a little under two posts per month. My first and last &amp;lsquo;real&amp;rsquo; posts were both complaining about the state of tech, &lt;a href=&#34;https://nate.mecca1.net/posts/2023-07-24_cloud-oss/&#34;&gt;Microsoft&amp;rsquo;s Windows 365&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&#34;https://nate.mecca1.net/posts/2023-12-27_mozillasbrink/&#34;&gt;The State of Firefox&lt;/a&gt; respectively, and the rest were all about various tech topics that interest me or that I&amp;rsquo;d been working on/using in some way.&lt;/p&gt;
