Huh. With all the complaints about the new comment system, I'd been looking at LJ yesterday and wondering, "what changed? What's wrong?"
Apparently I didn't have changes hit me until very recently. And the answer is "oh, THAT. Uhh... yuck."
I guess I will attempt to be as diligent as possible about posting over here with crossposting enabled, and about trying to add people to my DW circle when I can figure out who they are.
Please feel free to circle me on DW if you like, and I will reciprocate and try to migrate over to at least using both sites in a somewhat orderly fashion, if not giving up LJ wholly at this time (because I don't want to not get updates on peoples' lives).
As an "I'm entertained" aside: I still have a paid LJ account solely because of the DDoS attack paid time extenstions. I'm not planning renewing with LJ, and I think I will get a paid account at DW shortly.
Edit: where by "shortly," I meant, "now." I think this means that in addition to other "weekend when no one is here and I sing at the top of my lungs in between playing Dragon Age" festivities I had planned, I will also work on some icon stuff. :D

Date: 2011-12-23 09:09 am (UTC)I plan to get a DW paid account after Christmas if I can at all afford it. December is when my every six month ISP bill and my quarterly student loan both come due, and then my every six month car insurance is due in the middle of January, so Dreamwidth might have to wait until February. Unfortunately, I'm a perm account at LJ so I can't express my frustration with them monetarily.

Date: 2011-12-23 09:37 pm (UTC)My "frustration expression" is "well uh. I've turned off automatic payments so when March starts I'll no longer have already paid you for services. Uh. So there?" Not exactly a very strong looking gesture, but there you have it.
