I just found the following... when I went to do a post.
Anybody know what it means?
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*FollowByEmail widget (Feedburner) is going away
You are receiving this information because your blog uses the
FollowByEmail widget
(Feedburner).
Recently, the Feedburner team released a system update
announcement
, that the email subscription service will be discontinued in July 2021.
After July 2021, your feed will still continue to work, but the
automated emails to your subscribers will no longer be supported. If
you’d like to continue sending emails, you can download your subscriber
contacts.

Does it mean, that people will no longer be able to get notice, of new posts, via e-mail?
I don't understand the need for this. I have a list of blogs I read. It shows me, when they do a new post. Using the Blogger gadget.
Or could it mean, that we will all *turn into* No Reply Bloggers????

It means exactly as you thought. Feedburner is eliminating this service in June or July. I added a follower widget to my blog so people would get notified that way of new posts I do. I guess there could be other email subscriber services,I am not aware of them though.

I don't use Blogger but it sounds as though when Feedburner is discontinued, you just have to download your subscriber contacts so that those who follow you continue to get emails. Your grandson can show you how, I bet! Best of luck my friend ... I look forward to your posting alert in my email! xoxo
Yes, it is takling about the gadget that you put on your blog so people can follow it by e-mail. They are getting rid of it. I see no reason for it anyway. A follower asked me to put it on my blog, so I did. But you are right, we have the sidebar and the Blogger site, lots of ways to see new posts.
I don’t understand it either.
Sounds like you got your answer.
I have the subscribe by email on my blog but I can't imagine many people would want an email every time I post, most use their blog reading list or have their favorite blogs on their sidebars. They are probably getting rid of the email subscribe because nobody uses it.
Not sure what this is about.
I don't like email (never have). And I use Feedly rss. New blog posts are listed as they are published. I reply to comments on my blog & always make a point to visit those who are kind enough to take time to comment. If no comment I just figure it's a personal problem & move on
I don't know why they have to keep changing things, especially when it's working just fine!
