What the hell people

[komos]

Between the clunky interface that throws ads at me whenever I try to log in, a home page that I don't believe is customizable and filled with useless crap, and an utter lack of control over spam accounts that seem to respond to everything I post, I am rapidly losing patience with LJ.

That's the real issue, isn't it?

Wow, I don't know why you get so many spam comments? I never get them... not sure how I'm avoiding it.

I agree that LJ can be a pain. It's just the hub for so many people I know.

My problem is that it used to be a hub for everyone I know, but most have moved on to things like the book of face and twat-her if they do rapid strike, or blogger or some other platform for actual writing. It makes me sad, and has on occasion sapped my motivation for writing.

The worst part about the spam is that it's usually designed for the Russian set, so it's annoying AND useless to me.
