Help me out here: can you point to an article from someone's blog that showed up on Hacker News within the past few weeks that you wouldn't classify as "blogspam" and explain how it differs from the kinds of thing I write about?
Low effort content. You keep mention your product from the start over and over. There's not much useful information in the anecdotal post. It could've been a one-liner tweet.
Good corporate tech blogs at least give something useful or insightful for the reader and only after that they dare plug their product/service near the end.
Hot damn, if I'm communicating less value than corporate tech blogs there really is no hope for me.
("You keep mention your product from the start over and over" - I don't think that's fair, I mention Datasette Agent once at the start to set the scene but I spend more time talking about AgentsView than my own projects in the bulk of the piece.)
What, because I talked about one of my projects?

Go away.
I enjoy simonw’s posts and the discussions about them here.
Your vague unsubstantiated criticisms are very trollish and less useful, less insightful, and lower effort than the content you are criticizing.
