Lily Maynard's blog pulled

[FermatsTheorem]

Just that. Lily Maynard's WordPress blog has been shut down (there's a thread about it on Reddit GC, and the WordPress site is showing a "this blog has been archived" message).

Oh no! I hope it's restored soon, I have found her writing very helpful.

No! Fuck sake.

I saw this on her Twitter feed.

Wonder what the problem could possibly have been 🤔

There was never anything that wasnt true or respectfully written.

I think wordpress have done this a few times haven't they?

It's not all there, but some of it has been archived at least

Some chap fell asleep with his laptop open on her page, so he copied and pasted it and sent it to her.

Hopefully she can recover a majority of it.

Well done that chap.

Gosh, isn't it so nice to type pronouns that won't get a ban in this section for a change.

He sent it to her. Whoop whoop.

WordPress are regularly banning feminist sites, it's in their new rules.

These people should hopefully be able to set up on other platforms?

That's disgusting. They did it to GenderTrender too.

Woman haters.

I can restore your wordpress blog if it gets pulled. I've just recovered Lily's. Because women in tech are awesome ;)

You can always look at blogs that have been pulled on the waybackmachine, so there was no need for that man to copy and paste the whole blog bless him.

Hopefully can get it back up soon. Women are unstoppable

Superstar of the day, Ren. Brilliant.

Ren you are ace.

Ren I presume it was removed for "dead naming" or correctly sex-ing certain individuals.
Have these instances been deleted? Otherwise it will just get taken down again.

There are two versions of Wordpress. One is self hosted. One is hosted by Automattic. It is the ones which operate on the freemium model which are at risk. I suggest nobody have a free blog that you don’t want pulled. If you’re with Wix or Squarespace or Blogger or anywhere else that is freemium or a website/blog creator and you have any content you think might be cause for removal I suggest you look at a self-host alternative.

RenClithero speaks the truth. And if anyone wants helping moving GC content to a self hosted site DM me.

I would absolutely donate towards costs incurred for someone who is willing to set up (or provide space for) a secure hosting environment/platform for feminist blogs and websites.

Lily has said that WordPress can remove your content for any reason whatsoever, or no reason.

What stars you are.

buzzbobbly Good idea to publicly fund an entire server somewhere - can split it out for various different feminist sites. Would need a guaranteed monthly amount.

God this comment system is from the fucking past. And JUSTINE the site is flagging that it is coded with DREAMWEAVER? No wonder it keeps getting hacked bwahahha.

And this is why I love Mumsnet. Don’t we have the mist amazing, skilled, intelligent women on here, as well as us run if the mill women. 😁

Mumsnet really is a haven for CG women. No wonder they keep trying to get Mumsnet to shut us all down, especially now that the light is beginning to shine on them.

*mist 😳

FFS! * Most! 😳😳😳

I’m obviously not one of the most skilled, intelligent women. 😆

It is. I'm thinking of setting one up, with multisite Wordpress. Do you want to join me in this task - if the demand is there?

"You can always look at blogs that have been pulled on the waybackmachine, "

You can't rely on the WBM, for various reasons things don't get archived, the comments are missing, etc.

I would like to see a gender-critical wiki to keep track of certain people.

Incidentally, there's a certain Southend policeman who has had their page removed from Google under the 'right to be forgotten' rules.

Still in Bing tho.

Thanks, Ren.
