A Small Update

Coming back to Blogger every few years and running edits or attempting to modify the page templates makes it more and more evident that the service is in disrepair. Despite the service remaining relatively consistent on its face, the tools have become less functional and prone to glitches whilst older add-ons for for social media integration have become broken outright. Certain features for layouts are no longer accessible, requiring adjustment of the now-unsupported aspects of a page in HTML to avoid eliminating them outright. Everything to the right of this post suffers from that issue.

I'll likely be moving off of this platform in the future for posting content and projects. 

Until then, there are a handful of things that will likely still be hosted here when they're completed. These projects include a supplemental write-up for an iFixit troubleshooting guide on the Nintendo Switch Joy-con controllers, a post -or series of posts- on the fundamentals of puzzle design, and some outlined posts from the last year or two that haven't been finalized. The 'Art' section has gone relatively unused since it was added on despite my having a backlog of content that would fit there, but I think I'd be better off leaving that section and other secondary elements to whatever new service I shift to later.

The next update here will likely be after I've made the aforementioned iFixit guide comprehensive enough to push forward. The toolset there makes writing content with visual supplements less flexible than a conventional blogging site, so this place is the more appealing choice despite being off-site and having its own slew of issues. There's no particular timeline for this, as the guide itself is the primary focus and the supplemental piece is inessential to helping people fix their hardware.
