Amen, that's the bottom line.

Yup, and keep it backed up regularly...
Even if the site goes poof for whatever reason, you have your life's work saved.
Period.
You don't have that option with most social media.
Some of them allow you to download your "data" or whatever but pft...
Fuck 'em on principle alone. I don't care how they wanna try to make it seem more attractive.
At the end of the day, if you're not posting 90% of what you create online, on your OWN WEBSITE...
You are giving your energy away for free, for nothing, and it's all out of your control.
You owe it to yourself to value your time more than that.
That's why I moderate this site so hard...
The reader's time is VALUABLE.
Minimal BS allowed.
Of course some BS is inherent in the shit that I post (for example), but you EXPECT THAT.
You're agreeing to a sprinkling of trolling and BS when you visit...
But things get thrown all off balance when a chaotic element of bullshit is allowed into a site.
So my suggestion to people would be...
On YOUR SITE, YOUR CREATIONS are at the forefront of the purpose.
If you wanna allow other people to contribute content to your site, then fine.
But be extremely careful what you allow.
