Thanks; cool stuff. I just hope there's enough resiliency and backup in terms of personnel, such that such projects can go on indefinitely.

Well, there's the rub-- by no means did I set out to create a blog-like project, rather that's what it happened to drift towards over time. My main intent was to create as close an alternative to r/bandedessinee as possible due to Reddit's self-immolation at the time. I didn't want it to be about me, but about community participation, eventually with other people overseeing the project, with myself being more of an occasional contributor. This is doubly the case due to significant health issues and living in a place currently drifting towards... some pretty disastrous general outcomes.

But yes, I've tried doing a couple blogs for awhile. I frankly prefer the Reddit/FV approach because I don't have to be as perfectionistic, 'complete,' and me-centred, plus it let's me work more in a style intended to get general discussion rolling.

As I said above, if PieFed / etc eventually offered the ability to assign transferred content with matching usernames to the new account, that would pretty much solve things for me. Or if the community owner had the ability to modify old content (showing that in a public log of course), then it would also solve things. I don't feel like I'm hoping for too much here, but maybe I'm wrong...
