Looking for blog post about types of players

Salutations!

I once read a blog post about different types of RPG players, and I think I found my way there from here, but I can't find it anymore.

Among the types were "the drama student" (or similar), who cares deeply about the motivation and backstory of the character, about the plot and the interactions with other PCs and NPCs, but not so much about the rolling of the dice. There was a type who is pretty much the opposite, who is most engaged by the mechanics of the game. There was one type who was mostly there to hang out with friends. And some other types.

Has anyone else read this (or did you perhaps write it), and can you point me to it?
