January Update.

Wherein the blog has failed successfully - January Update.

This is just some updates that we had to let the readers know.

1. Our spam blocker decided to put all of the comments from the alt-nets right into the garbage. Shame on you, spam blocker! But we guess it's to be expected since alt-nets default to a loopback address, and thus the spam blocker just thought that IP was a bad actor and blocked it entirely. I've created an exception, so at least there's a chance that we can see it. We honestly thought we were back to shouting at clouds again and that our site was blocked.
   .
   To all who tried to comment and they got lost. Apologies on that yo!
   .
   To those who keep commenting that we're gay! Hey! We're working on becoming MORE gay just for you!!
   .
2. We have moved the comments section out of the footer of this site. This move really gave the spammers a heart attack as they frantically tried to post everywhere on my blog, only to find out nothing was happening. The last 100 comments are on their own page now.
3. Some of you were commenting on events that were happening when this site was on the clearnet. In general, we're pretty good at publishing when we entered the alt-nets out there. like Tor back in 04/24/16 and eventually I2P back in 10/28/2022. Any postings before these dates would more than likely reference clear-net issues and problems.
4. Speaking of the Tor page. We moved all of the recommended links table we had at the bottom of that article over to the buttons page. We recognize that buttons are a different way of independent web promotion and encourage all of our readers to explore some of our buttons there. If you are a webmaster who wants to do a button trade. reach out.
5. In the e-mail section, I've added an I2P e-mail address as ANOTHER way for peeps to reach out to me. Sometimes my e-mail server gets stupid and locks up, and we should have some level of redundancy for people to reach out. Our pleroma instance(Clearnet) is great, too, if you are on Mastodon. The I2P e-mail will not work on Tor or Clearnet. Which is why it's fairly safe to use the "mailto:" link system, as the odds of spammers using I2P are still fairly new to them.

That's all for now.
