In the next days and weeks, there is going to be a significant migration away from WordPress. And Invisible Pink Dragon is going to be one of them.
Earlier this week, WordPress’ parent company (that also owns Tumblr) announced it was going to sell its users’ content to AI companies. Essentially, everything we have hosted on WordPress is about to be plagiarised and any reassurances we can opt out are ultimately hollow. The plan speaks to intent as much as anything else. WordPress believes that plagiarism is fine as long as it makes them money.
I’m moving and a lot of other writers will be as well.
I don’t know yet where the blog will go or if I’ll rebrand. Writing a blog like this with limited readership and engagement is something I do for me and not for anybody else. If I was doing it for other reasons I would have given up a long time ago.
So a blog of some kind will continue in some form somewhere.
What will it be called? Will it still be focussed on Korean dramas? Will it be incorporated with my second (neglected) writing blog?
All things I need to think about.
Watch this space….
