Back when I started this blog the main two choices of platform were Blogger or WordPress. I probably chose the wrong option in going for Blogger, but okay.
Then Blogger, owned by google, had the option of having its comments managed by Google+. I'd had a few issues with comments so I thought "why not?". Again, probably the wrong choice. Now Google+ is about to be retired, and I am wondering about turning off the "manage comments with google+" option on the blog. Presumably this will be turned off by force in a few months. That means all the comments made in the last 6 years or so will be lost, which would be a bit of a disaster.
Do any readers know of plans to migrate Google+ comments to Blogger comments? I haven't been able to find anything out by searching with any well-known search engines.
edit: Having tried to search for more information about this, I realise that the way I'd had it set up meant that only users of Google+ were able to leave comments on the blog. Oh. That's not what I wanted these last 6 years. I've just switched off the Google+ link. Comment away, non-Google+ folk.
