I posted a personal story (like making food or showing my hobbies) but I don't think anyone wants to see that. Should I keep doing it?

Yes, absolutely keep doing it. Everyone feels that way at first—‘nobody wants to see this’—but personal content is exactly what builds connection. Sharing your life, hobbies, and personality is what lets people get to know you as a human, not just a seller. If someone follows you and loves your art, and then sees you making homemade tortillas or going camping, that creates a touchpoint. Maybe they love tortillas too, or they camp as well—now there’s common ground and a reason to reply or engage. These stories make you relatable and authentic. Keep posting them. They matter more than you think.
