Unfortunately we live in a society which doesn't reward that. At all. If you can be content with being the most usefully informative guy on the planet and receiving less recognition for it than the guy who makes funny faces on TikTok all day... good for you. Most people cannot.

One thing that might help with this is actual face-to-face connections. Join a hackerspace or something. A smaller number of people may interact with you than on your blog, but they're a substantially more complex interactions, not just a view counter going up.
