Me: (trying to murder my blog, repeatedly)

My blog: (stubbornly refusing to die)

FINE! BE THAT WAY

@cheribaker

I have now, with great pleasure, re-added a Cheri entry to my RSS reader! 😎

@cheribaker Hooray! Are you starting fresh, or were you able to import old blog entries? I’m pondering a move, myself.

@cygnoir I definitely want to add my old blog posts. There's some sort of importer, but I haven't looked into it yet. Worst case I'll paste in my favorites. :)

@jessekelber Yay!

@cheribaker Pinging (for an invite) as suggested. 😁

@Miraz Absolutely! Will do.

@ddanielson @cheribaker Hi, Dave! I wondered where you went. Thanks for the encouragement.

@cygnoir I looked into the importer, and it seems it's only for LiveJournal. So it'll have to be a cut and paste party on my end.

@cheribaker Thanks for letting me know. I’ll be eager to hear how you decide which posts to cut and paste.

"It Lives!"

I think this is a good and solid way to go - congrats for that solution.

Back when I was still blogging - very low readership, but open - I was always debating what to disclose and what to bury outside, and I didn't always succeed in "choosing wisely" as the old knight in the cavern said.

So I suppose your limited access part will also save you from being scraped by AI searches - good for you.

Enjoy the freedom!

And resist the melting - Winter Is Coming!

@cheribaker This is cool. Also, looks retro. BTW when you say create a login, is a Dreamwidth login or something else? The “privacy per post” should be a default in all blogging platforms, IMO.

@pratik They work with dreamhost and openID logins, although I don't know much about the latter.
