What not still? yea. Three accounts running at Threads and Instagram and Facebook one each for samupress, dougsamu, and Londontlife. On top of that when we blundered through editing the users here all the attached posts got unattached and dumped into Drafts, or into the trash with the 180 we recovered from the trash one at a a time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now you can\u2019t auto post to Facebook or Threads or Instagram unless the accounts are a business account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We connected all the media and posts to the new corrected Users and set all the drafts to Published. So this dumped a whole lotta posts to the Instagram feed which apparently is a huge No No for which I\u2019m being reprimanded by having my business accounts banned from advertising. But frankly keeping all that sharing focused is a PITA. And the advertising is too expensive and we never planned on using it anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, we also wanted to refocus the sites and share feeds. Samupress will be the store, merch, and product and promo posts. very infrequent. If you follow us there you may want to switch over to either of the other two profiles \u2014 doug.samu and or Londontlife at Instagram. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
