Someone pointed out that I never really posted any kind of resolution my server troubles, perhaps leaving some of you wondering what’s up.
I think I can now safely say we’re out of the woods. Bandwidth is still a little high, but after installing Jetpack again it seems to be at an acceptable level. Not my favorite plug-in but it’s good at its job. Incidentally, that also means you can use Markdown formatting in comments again if you wish. So basically everything’s fine on the technical front.
There is one other “problem” though. I hope I haven’t let this be too obvious, but I’ve been kinda neglecting the blog due to a confluence of events keeping me unusually busy for the last couple weeks. For example any submissions that need extra attention, e.g. because there’s alot of text that’s difficult to fit, are sitting on the back burner at the moment. I hope in the near future I have time to catch up on that stuff.
But for now, everything seems to be working, submissions are still open, enjoy the nudity.
Quick refresher on Markdown for anyone interested:

Hi NWO,
I hope the virus is being kind to you and it isn’t part of the problem slowing you down.
Oh yeah, I probably should have mentioned that, lest anyone worry. I and my extended family have all been lucky. No one got sick with it, nor lost their job from the countermeasures, though obviously their have been certain disruptions.
Doing as good as can be expected out here. Hope you can say the same. And that goes for the rest of my visitors too of course!
