Changes in the Mill Blogger Landscape
The mill blogger landscape in Russia has undergone changes in recent times. Following the death of Progosian and his mutiny, many mill bloggers have become more self-censoring, refraining from criticizing the Russian Ministry of Defense or the Kremlin. Some have shifted their focus to highlighting the actions of Ukrainian forces instead. This shift has made it more challenging to gather information and analysis from mill bloggers as they are less outspoken and less critical of the Russian government. However, new trends and factions continue to emerge within the mill blogger community, keeping the information space dynamic and ever-evolving.
