Goodbye Google Plus -- And Almost All Old Comments

Last week I received email from Google informing me that Google Plus was going away -- at least for low-traffic rabble like me. This wouldn't be a big deal except for one HUGE issue.

I misread the email and though I had until March 1^st to fix things, but just discovered that all comments and followers that interacted with this blog via Google Plus are gone as of yesterday.

From my dashboard:

Apologies to all my commenters.

What I probably do: add Disqus. But I am considering returning to Typepad. The only reason I went away from it is that I had been using its monthly paid service for years, and when my descent into penury began in 2014, I changed to Typepad's free service. But Blogspot's free service was better, so I moved to this platform.

That you get what you pay for remains a constant in the universe.

Suggestions?
