I’m In The Dark

When it comes to coding or anything to do with Blogger, I’m completely in the dark.

An example of this is I’m still trying to figure out the new Blogger style. When I put a photo in, it makes the print next to it so small I have to go back and make it the largest font and then it looks strange. (See what I mean by looking at the first paragraph.)

Well, that darkness just got a lot blacker recently with the following notice.

FollowByEmail widget (Feedburner) is going away
You are receiving this information because your blog uses the FollowByEmail widget (Feedburner).
Recently, the Feedburner team released a system update announcement , that the email subscription service will be discontinued in July 2021.
After July 2021, your feed will still continue to work, but the automated emails to your subscribers will no longer be supported. If you’d like to continue sending emails, you can download your subscriber contacts. Learn how

 

I’m sure many or most of you have received the same announcement. I don’t have a clue what to do. I followed the instruction and downloaded my email subscription list, but it looks like Greek to me.

Can anyone break this down into plain English for me (and possible others)? I’m not sure what to do now. Is there another service where readers can get the post sent to them or be notified there is a post? What other ways are there to be notified that a new post has gone live?

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I’m sorry I’m in a “pity party” mood about this, but it is SO  confusing to me and I don’t want to lose any of you. Can anyone help?
