Hello everyone,
I hope you’ve been having a great start to 2025!
Newsletter Platform Update
I enjoyed using WordPress.com last year to handle the Dragonsinn newsletter.
However, it was still taking up a chunk of time.
I paused on most of my hobbies in Q4 of last year to rethink what to focus on and how to streamline certain things.
What’s the New Platform?
NOTE: All current subscribers have been imported to the new platform, so there’s nothing you need to do to continue getting Dragonsinn.net updates.
I was looking for an RSS feed option, as I don’t like bogging my website down with unnecessary plugins.
I believe I used Feedburner a very long time ago on one of my websites. However, it didn’t have robust email management features.
So I decided to try follow.it.
follow.it
A few reasons why I liked this Feedburner alternative:
- Subscribers get an automatic notification when new posts are published
- Additional features for subscribers. For example, you can choose to get blog updates via email, Telegram, news page, Chrome extension, or mobile alerts (with other options to follow soon)
- You can choose your preferred delivery channels, notification frequency, and define filters on your Dragonsinn subscription page
What Else is Going On?
I caught up with the remaining months left from last year’s 25th website anniversary monthly celebrations.
It was done in a bit of a rush, but I wanted to at least finish the whole series.
You can view those in the recently published first post of 2025:
I’d also like to focus on getting some dragon poetry and printables done this year.
I’ll share more about that in the next post 📝
As always, I love to hear about creative and other projects that Dragonsinn subscribers and visitors are working on.
Feel free to let me know what you’re working on anytime!
