I do look after this blog, even though I haven&#8217;t used it much recently, so I&#8217;ll be actively moderating. As I said though, I&#8217;ll be linking via the social media so any discussions on them is, of course, still very welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Update: I&#8217;ve configured a new anti-spam plugin and enabled public comments. Let&#8217;s see how this goes. New accounts are still welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an aside, MeWe is looking to be the best non-Faecebook alternative at the moment. No public posts there yet, but that&#8217;s apparently in testing. No idea if that will fold at some time in the future though, thus my rekindled interest in this \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s another upcoming social media platform called Solid and involves Tim Berners-Lee, but that seems highly technical so probably won&#8217;t be ideal, so blog it is!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Given the imminent demise of Google+, the lack of trust I have in Faecebook and my doubts of any social media platform managing to stay alive I&#8217;ve decided to pay more attention my this, my blog.
