\nThe post is at taonaw.com/2019/01/1…, and the reason you saw it in your RSS and then it disappeared is because it’s an old post which I originally pulled from my old blog.
MB has this habit that even though I put the old date in, once I schedule the post (so it’s in the past) it still publishes on current day. So, I fixed it, but the RSS was already out.
\nSubnautica is one of those games without autosaves (stubbornly so, apperently) that makes a case of exactly the kind of saves you’re talking about. Not a lot of games like these exist - and I do save often and frequently, and because it only allows one save per game (not sure why), I should probably make a backup. I’d hate to lose my progress, now that I’m revisiting this amazing game.
