I think the best procedure would be to host your blogging content on a private platform and only link and advertise the new articles on several platforms, like your google group.

Yep. My gut tells me that there is some mix of flags here that I somehow afoul of, although I have no idea what they were. I did the best I could -- and I'm trying -- to just put out plain content. Yes, I wrote a book, and yes, that's one of the reasons I write. But it's a very small reason. I'm using RamNode for this site. I have to have somewhere I own the box because at times I write demos and small apps. The best guess I have is that after finishing the article this morning, I posted too quickly. I wanted to get through with whatever sharing I had to do so I could get back to coding. There are four or five places I hang out online, so I just went over there immediately and shared. I figured if folks didn't like it? So what? Happens all the time. Time is moving on today and I've got things to do. Beats the living crap out of me. Worse, I don't know if it'll go away after a while or not. Fuck if I'm going to create a new blog or anything. I'm not doing anything wrong.

  That's the problem with hosting content on a not-owned platform. You may've done nothing wrong, but since it's theirs, they can pretty much do whatever they want, including censorship or shadow-ban.

    So you're not saying to host my own blog, which I do. You're saying don't talk about anything I create on any kind privately-owned social media platform. That makes sense. I'm not sure it's very useful, since most of the world's population are on these platforms and it's completely impossible to reach people without using them. Doesn't matter to me how many people read what I write. I just want a chance along with everybody else. That's all. Not going online with the rest of the planet doesn't seem like a very useful piece of advice.
