You would be correct, the majority of users do not blog but there are ways for you to do so technically, such as by creating a Spam or Off-Topic topic on it and denoting it that way, although do be prepared for comments to appear on it as users, especially Spam regulars, will interject whatever is top of mind. Generally speaking, broadly at that, users at most use the status bar or the associated Discord, [@Hazardous Siren].
