You're not going to LEAVE are you? I'd be sad.

god no, too lazy. besides, i love livejournal! never had a problem with it.

It's very similar to LJ. I'm there but I'm here too. I have an invite if you want one. Functionality is pretty much identical to here.

did you transfer all ur old LJ entries?

and thanks for the offer, but i think i'm fine. it's too hard to keep track of all the places to visit online.

minxyminou January 15 2011, 23:22:08 UTC

Yes I did. They have a option to do it and it's a couple of clicks. I now blog everything from there to here.

How do you do that part? I transferred all my entries when I first set it up, but I don't know how to transfer new posts over there.

Basically as far as I can tell it's the same as LiveJournal ( based on the same code even ) but running on a slightly more user-sympathetic ethos, rather than LJ's approach that seems to be based on hate for their users.

The main thing that would incline me to switch would be if Dreamwidth didn't have those infuriating full screen adverts that get in the way of seeing posts or replying to them.

And if all my awesome LJ friends went there...

I joined but never have used it.
Basically it's people who are sick of LJ and think it sucks.
Over the last year I've had a lot of friends leave LJ just say it was crap and facebook/blogger did the job ...

I looove my LJ I've had it for years, I think I'd cry if everyone packed up and left for some other site!

I have it partly because I feel LJ has forgotten the original user base here and turned into a commercial entity (sick of those snow men at the top yet? :P sick of being told what you can and can't post for legal reasons? sick of being told there's this great new functionality - if you live in russia? Sick of being told there's this great new functionality and finding out it's really limiting or shit? Sick of your friends giving you 'cans of pepsi' because it's some stupid freebie promotion?)... and partly because my friends are slowly de-bunking out to it ( ... )
