Not sure about Nicovideo but I would assume similar to YouTube.
Bandcamp I'm not too sure about but I feel you gotta get known in diff circles to start to branch out with that kinda stuff.
Twitter (X) is usually used in conjunction with something else rather than on its own (also it's becoming less desirable for people).
Fediverse I would assume the same as Twitter (X).
Unsure about blogs but this is similar in that you need the algorithm to pick you up really and likely you'd want something to advertise it on (E.g. the previously mentioned things).
Selling stuff can depend on the site, price, quality of goods, etc. and that seems less like a business and more like a carboot sale (aka yard/garage sale) to me with how you're saying you're selling unused items.
GitHub and programming jobs typically I feel like they'd want a portfolio (i.e. past projects) but don't do stuff for the sake of ticking a box as it could come across as sloppy.
TL;DR: A lot of it is at the whim of the algorithm so don't expect it to magically become a sensation overnight. Grow your skills in a couple of areas you want to target, for what you said here it seems like Music Production and Programming.
Updates about monetization on niconico: I would get 14 yen for January subsidy and 9-30 yen for February. They give me incomes by amount of impressions and gifts.
