I posted this a couple of days ago but it was in an old thread that
might not catch people's attention so here it is again. Although GG
has stopped accepting new content, it still allows searching of
content prior to 22 Feb 2024 and you can get a link to any specific
post by clicking on the 3 dots beside it.

Thanks. I almost never have a need or desire to dig up old
posts, but it's nice to know it's possible, at least for
now.

I don't use it a lot but occasionally find it useful to check out what
I actually said when people are misunderstanding or misrepresenting
what I said in the past or to check things people said that they now
deny.

It's also useful for getting links usable by people who either can't
or won't use a newsreader.
