I give up after 3 months of not posting anything new. I don't unfollow them, I just assume they're gone for good. I do hate the open-ended mystery of disappearing bloggers, though. I always want to know what happened.Beth Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01898921671895123053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-11532916344058364872015-09-10T13:55:26.792-04:002015-09-10T13:55:26.792-04:00I don't delete blogs, occasionally i go throug...I don't delete blogs, occasionally i go through them and that person may have deleted their own blog, then i delete it.<br />I do wonder where the missing bloggers have gone, and it's good that some of them eventually come back, like one comment has already said, FB and Instagram are to blame for a lot of people giving up blogging, which is a shame.

I didn't want to be a whiny Debbie-Downer, so I just crawled under my rock. I still read the blogs I managed to merge into Feedly, but it's a fraction of all the blogs I have bookmarked.<br />I suppose I could deactivate xeyedmaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00884422944735171168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-52982109187592248082015-09-08T15:38:29.658-04:002015-09-08T15:38:29.658-04:00I think I've deleted one person, but that was ...I think I've deleted one person, but that was more because her blogs were constantly whiney.

Typically, the blog owners who post on FB they have blog updates are the ones I read. My Feedly stands as it was, and once in a long while I'll scan through to see who is posting. Evidently I'd rather stitch than read these days.Charlene ♥ NChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09356543817696065946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-90477560544307284152015-09-08T07:06:34.469-04:002015-09-08T07:06:34.469-04:00I've stopped blogging but not stopped reading ...I've stopped blogging but not stopped reading blogs (witness the sudden increase in commenting!)
