So, deciding on a possible domain for my new home for my articles and blogging.
My main site is https://www.davidaugust.com/
And I own davidaugust.net
But maybe that gets confusing, so not great.
Maybe a subdomain?
I think ghost.davidaugust.com would be highlighting the tech running it too much.
Would a subdomain of blog.davidaugust.com seem too informal (plus I used that ages ago for other things)?
would words.davidaugust.com be too pretentious?
I welcome any ideas.
