Why does shitjustworks have so many bots? I see certain communities like this where brand new accounts just spam random images. I have a dozen new accounts blocked every day and it’s getting tedious.

What is their purpose?

Blogspot still exists? I haven't seen a blogspot site in years! If they're still around then Google must have bumped them way down in page rank. I guess that makes sense, since Google only pushes products and news sites now.

Yeah they're still around, although blogs in general seem to have gone the way of the dodo

I've been thinking about blogging again. Not on blogspot, but I've been feeling that I need somewhere to write out my thoughts somewhere that isn't controlled by someone else, and isn't subject to the whims of whatever groupthink occurs on a given platform. I used to have a lot of them, but like most people, I gradually stopped using them as social media took over.
