This writing style, which reads like an LLM wrote it, is draining to read.
I put up with it when I'm actively using an LLM tool, because I just accept that this is how these tools write, but when reading a blog I expect to read words written in one of the vast varieties of normal human-written blog formats.

Fair point. English isn’t my first language, so I run my writing through tools to polish it. I probably leaned too hard into making this one auditable. The research and conclusions are mine, but yeah, it reads more like a technical report than a blog post.

One of the things that stood out in your article was the high amount of negations or contrasts. This is one of the worst hallmarks of AI writing, because humans tend to write in a more straightforward way, without as many caveats.
My two cents: you should avoid using AI to “polish” what you wrote. At most, instruct it to correct grammar mistakes only, instead of rephrasing your words, changing your arguments, turning paragraphs into bullet lists, “improving” sentences to make them more idiomatic… Nowadays, many technical readers would rather read the occasional non-idiomatic prose than put up with the soulless writing style of AI.
