By the way, I have changed all my digital items to be donationware now, and so you can now get them at no expense!
I made a minor metadata update today consisting of just adding the rel="me" attribute to my link to my new site. This *may* decrease the chances of search engines getting confused. It is supposed to indicate that another page or site is the same identity as oneself (such as when linking to one's own social media accounts or other platform accounts). You may find adding that to attribute to your own such links useful.

I've added the previously mentioned browser cache related glitch fix info to my Neocities stub page now too (with greater depth and detail for clarity). The info can be found at the bottom of my Neocities stub page in the "PS" section. If you have continued having problems viewing some of my pages then this may help.

Another important update: Even though my previous removal of the domain redirection fixed the page loading problem as far as I could tell earlier, it re-occured later on, but I fixed it by clearing my browser cache for the site. Many of you (those of you who have browsed my site before) may need to do the same. In Firefox: open history, find a WraithGlade entry, right click then "forget this page". That'll fix it!
There are apparently still some glitches on my new host and several of my pages are not loading (the ".html" is getting cut off for no apparent reason). I'll be trying to fix that soon. Some turbulence is to be expected in any host switch though.

Ok, so I think I fixed it now! I had a "www." URL forwarder set up on my domain registrar to shorten the URLs by removing the "www." but that was causing random problems with my new nameservers. Neocities even mentions the same pitfall in its own custom domain setup help doc page. Now though, I am in control of such things (instead of Neocities) and thus the glitch surfaced on my new web host. It looks fixed now.

I may try to renable the "www" removal somehow later on, but for now I am just using the full "www" domains to avoid any bugs.
Ok! So, I've just performed my Domain Name Server switch for the new site but it looks like the changes haven't propagated across the internet yet. Thus, if you access "WraithGlade.com" currently you'll see some odd half-applied design settings. The Neocities site is now my new stub page though. I'll check back tomorrow morning to see if things are correct yet. Point is: The big move out of Neocities is happening!

Most importantly of all though: Thank you all very much for the wonderful community this past year and more! Although I will still check back occasionally, my activity on my profile here will decrease a lot going forward. I will miss you guys! 🤗💖
I've created new download and site map pages for my site today. Yet again however, the update has not appeared in my feed. It is possible that it is being suppressed/censored by Neocities now because I stated my intent to change hosts on ethical grounds. That wouldn't surprise me at this point. Regardless though, my future is brighter by the day now. As always, I am wishing you all all the best in your own endeavors!

I don't think it's censorship, since it would probably be easier to simply clear your entire profile. It's more a backend issue, since I've been having problems with recent changes occasionally not posting to the dashboard since I started here. Plus, Neocities has a staff of probably 3, and there's almost 1m accounts now.

I agree ^^ definitely not censorship. The feed update queue has always been janky, as long as I've been here.

It is fairly likely that many of you also have outdated caches for my website on your browsers. So, to ensure less chance of other subtle page loading glitches going forward you should all make sure to clear all cache and history in your browser related to WraithGlade.com! I hope that helps! Thanks!
