@10centuries I have nothing in the Mentions column but I can see replies made to my posts in both Home & Global.

TIL that markup annotations and Pixelmator repair tools are available while composing an email when using Apple's Mail app on a Mac.

I'm not into markdown. So this is new to me.

thanks!

@height8 I researched as much as I could (so I thought) about such things vanishing & discovered that if I retained my iTunes Match subscription as well as subscribing to Apple Music, I would retain control of my collection. That plus several local backups including on an 80 GB iPod Classic.
Turns out if I'd researched a little further at my ISP end, I'd have found that they offered a free 12-mnth subscription to Apple Music.

In my experience such folk fail to realise that it's a voice amplification system & there's no need to shout.
