A bit of vagueposting regarding the state of LJ in the larger world...

The country that owns LJ may be shutting off Internet access soon. Not sure how that might affect LJ use, but I'm also over at DreamWidth, and plan on starting to post there in the future.

I'm trying to import my LJ stuff to DW, but my entries have not imported. I know LJ has changed some stuff that made crossposting not possible, but I can tell the import connection is working because it has imported stuff like my bio and tags. I guess 18+ years of posts is a bit much, especially when I'm assuming a lot of others are trying to import. Should have done it years ago, but it was always one of those things I was planning to get around to. Still trying, fingers crossed.

LJ itself only allows saving stuff month-by-month, and even then, I have no idea on importing to DW. If anyone has pointers on saving my posts at a minimum, even if I can't import elsewhere, please let me know. I've tried a few options without much luck so far.

ETA: Going throught this list of potential archivers, most links are dead. I did find BlogBooker, which exports stuff into a pdf or doc file. I now have 2021 in a book format, and will go back for the rest. At least I'll be able to go back to read old entries, which I do a lot to refresh my memory on certain events.
