To be able to discuss in the forums, you must be logged in. Either use the IndieWeb (Web sign-in) or you can ask me for this blog (e-mail) to register. In both cases you then go through the registration process.
So why personal communications?
It's easy, because not everyone wants to publicly comment on my blog posts. For a variety of reasons. These readers mostly used the old e-mail or simply waited until they met me in person. Some also used the phone and, in rare cases, social media to talk to me about one thing or another.
To make it a little easier for these readers, I'm simply attaching a notification form to the new blog posts. Readers can fill this out very easily and send it to me. I then receive an e-mail from the system with the content of the message.
And if the e-mail address given there is correct, I have the chance to reply to it as well.
Detlef Stern just drew me to a related blog post by Kevin Quirk brought to your attention: Does a Blog Need to Integrate? (3.1.2023)
Kevin Quirks own solution with an e-mail reply button has its charm, especially when you get this button to work. But my solution also has its merits.
Today I decided to turn off the messaging function again. Kevin Quirk and Detlef Stern were absolutely right.
If you want, you can now easily use the email button right next to the social media links and reply to me with an email.
Addition: Inflation is stronger than before the euro?
No. The euro has been around for 25 years. On average, the Eurosystem (ECB + national central banks) achieved the inflation target significantly better between 1999 and 2020 than was the case before. The phase of current inflation as a result of the Corona crisis and the supply bottlenecks and the energy crisis has driven up prices worldwide in 2021 and 2022. Inflation has been falling continuously since the end of 2022 and is approaching 2% again.
In addition, the common currency has given Europe stability in various crises.
The common currency supports the domestic market and has helped Germany achieve strong export performance.
Thank you, I have posted your post in the relevant forum. I would also be happy to unlock you for the forum, so you can also actively participate there.
I would like to add to the minutes of the “Europe Now!” discussion group that we participants also debated how “natural” Europe has become, especially for us younger people. Many of us don't know any different. Travel without borders, pay in euros, no customs fees when shopping online, we hardly know any other way. It is important to demonstrate these freedoms in order to arouse interest in Europe.
Likewise, the majority of the group agreed that we are not afraid, but rather feel concern and uncertainty when we observe current developments.
Dear Semin, this addition actually belongs as an answer under the post: https://kuemmerle.name/foren/topic/protokolle-7-hertensteiner-gespraeche#postid-291 by Walther Heipertz. You can find this option as “Answers” immediately to the right below each forum post.
The good thing about it is that everyone involved in the post will then receive a reference to your corresponding answer.
This comment function here is intended for the 'general' of the forum.
Would be a topic for the next round on January 18.1.2023th, XNUMX, right? It's no good if we fill it up alone 😉
As we were able to determine, the half-life of such rounds is not sufficient to fill a forum even remotely. Where non-binding has become a principle, you really have to think about completely new communication channels.
Blogger achievement unlocked! 🏆
My German is rusty, but someone has described my personal site not just as dangerous, but *VERY* dangerous! 😊
