I’ve now connected micro.blog to this domain and most of my content from WordPress is sitting here. I might post occasionally. Nowhere as often as I used to previously, but better than nothing, I guess.
Redirects
I’ve now configured a redirector within Google Cloud to handle redirects from the old blog and point them to the WordPress-centric domain. Essentially doing what wordpress.com was doing while the domain was still with them.
I’ll leave this in place until I decide what to do with the blog.
Domain Transferred
I have now transferred my domain off WordPress.
I am no longer shackled here.
Disconnection
blenderfox.com is now disconnected from my blog. I’ll migrate it away from WordPress soon.
Domain Disconnection
I have decided to disconnect my domain from WordPress in November. I’ll attempt to redirect back to WordPress for any articles that may be bookmarked.
WP Drama
You may already be aware of the mess that is happening with WordPress/Automattic and WP Engine.
This mess has enforced the need for me to disconnect my blog domain from here as quickly as possible, but I still haven’t found any good options.
ClassicPress is one, but trying to find an appropriate host is tricky since it’s not a widely used.
Ghost is another I have considered and am still considering.
Tumblr…. just, nope…
Disconnecting Domain
I’m going to be disconnecting the domain from this blog probably in the next month or so.
I’ll move the domain off WordPress and plug in a redirect to bring it back here for those who have bookmarked my articles.
Themes
WordPress threw me onto one of their default themes since my plan expired. So I had to go find a free one that looked half decent
Expired
My wordpress plan has expired. I am no longer shackled to WordPress, other than my domain
WordPress Goodbye on the Horizon
I’ve finally had a notification from WordPress that my plan is coming up for expiry.
I won’t be renewing it.
If you still want to view my posts after I kill the blog domain, it’ll be at https://blenderkitsune.wordpress.com (this currently redirects to https://blenderfox.com as the domain and hosting is still active)
