Assuming this is part of your diary, you probably do not need a response, but still, I'd like to throw my words out there, just as you did.

A thing many people do is to create a separate acc to post daily diary there, you can always try doing the same.

I did some diarying and to me it it similar to meditation in some ways. You do end up with useful conclusions, but those are mostly useful only for you personally, while for others it would be gibberish nobody cares about.

Should I care?

Nah, prolly not, though I am also unsure dev.to is the right place for a diary, maybe twitter or facebook would be better...

Is the content "useful" or "useless"? Does it matter?

Useless. If you go with a diary, you instantly raise the amount of information, while the amount of useful info stays the same (or even drops, becoming less comprehensive), SNR raises. "Does it matter?" is a vague question.

Do people care more about my old stuff, mostly tiny tutorials?

Welp I never read you before, can't say. IMHO your last few posts look like gibberish, but who am I to tell you what to do.

Is this something I want to contribute to - "tutorial hell"?

Up to you really.

Is the habit more valuable than the actual content?

As stated above, one can combine those.

Either way, good luck with your self-digging.
