Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
Merry Christmas because it's my own holiday; Happy Holidays because my own holiday isn't the only one. I'm back! I'll try to cope with Eclipse, since dA has not collapsed under its weight, plus I'm told that some of its many bugs have been fixed.

Goodbye
It is with deep sadness that I have to announce that I am leaving dA after twelve happy years here. The problem is the compulsory change to Eclipse. This is far from the first time that dA has sprung unsolicited changes on us, fixing what ain't broke while neglecting what is, but never before have they brought about such a drastic change, or to something so deeply inferior.
I would like to thank all of my watchers, and those who have faved my posts. I won't deactivate my account; I just won't be posting any more. I'll still log in occasionally to finish backing up my posts. I'll be at Twitter (temporarily, as Thomas Ahlswede) and Discord, as
Sound of silence
I won't be on dA from May 1 thru May 3, to protest the forcing of Eclipse on us. We've experienced unsolicited changes many times before - the dA admins seem fond of fixing what ain't broke rather than what is - but nothing quite so drastic as the "retirement" of the old format, or to anything quite so deeply inferior. I also expect to be leaving dA on or shortly before May 20, hopefully to Twitter and eventually to Artrise. Sorry, everyone!
