2024 (blog) Year in review

January 01, 2025 — Nico Cartron

Blogging

Here we are again, writing this year in review.
Check out the ones I did in 2021, 2022 and 2023!

Articles, overall

Total number of articles

find(1) tells me I wrote 118 articles in 2024:

% find . -name "*.md" -type f -mtime -365 -maxdepth 1 |wc -l     
 118

Which gives:

  • ~2 articles per week
  • ~9 articles per month

Breakdown per month

I was aiming for 2 articles a week, so 8 a month, which I managed to do the whole year - with a steep increase in November and December:

  • January: 12
  • February: 12
  • March: 8
  • April: 8
  • May: 8
  • June: 8
  • July: 10
  • August: 6
  • September: 8
  • October: 8
  • November: 14
  • December: 16

Language

No surprise: most of the articles were written in English, and only 11 were in French.

Topics

My top 5 topics in 2024 were:

  • IT: 34
  • FreeBSD: 18
  • Misc: 18
  • Running: 12
  • Books: 11

New trending topic: Books!

I am reading a lot more in the past months, and this shows in the articles I'm writing: the first post I wrote was in November 2023 (Rendez-vous with Rama), and I kept an habit of writing about the books I just read, with 10 articles in 2024.

What's next in 2025?

I'll keep writing on running and FreeBSD, as well as books - but I also want to get back a lot more to Sailfish OS (only 4 articles in 2024!).
