Ofc
Is 1300 blitz good for a 13 year old?
If you want to be a good chess player, you do what is necessary to become a better player, rather than asking for validation on a forum. You do what is necessary to improve instead of just talking about it. (This may sound harsh, but isn't this how improvement works?)
So rather than asking whether you're "good" (which is subjective, because people's criteria for what is good will vary), perhaps you should find out whether the time you spend on chess is optimised for improvement. Since you are a member of the Improvers club, I assume you know where to find resources to help you improve.

I’m only looking for peoples ideas not only working on those opinions, I have my own opinions and I only play for fun
Not particularly good for a 13 year old, no. 1900 blitz would be.
Wow, very high standards
I reached my peak of 1935 Blitz recently, I’m 12. Tilted down to 1870 quickly. I was 1300 maybe 2 years ago? Not exactly sure. At any rate it (1300) is a good Elo, and you can improve very quickly from 1300.

1900 Blitz is the top 1% of players. It’s hard to expect that of a 13 year old. At 1000 you probably have a 95% or higher of beating a random person (a lot of people play chess casualty or know the rules but have never studied it so you could easily defeat them.) And 1300 is obviously better than 1000. 1000+ is good at any age, so 1300 is great for a 13 year old. I find it odd to expect a 13 year old to be 1900, and I’m saying this as a 1900 who turns 13 in a month. Keep studying chess, OP, you’re doing well.

Yeah I agree

Wow, you probably have GM potential with that rating, keep going and let’s see!
Thanks everyone, maybe you guys can also say your age and rating, then we’ll see and maybe try average out age to rating to see if there’s a pattern or just how long and hard you play
As a 1300 blitz player, it's solid but not spectacular. If you're a teen, then it is comparatively better though.
Just as the title says⬆️
