-> Firstly, happy holidays to everyone. This will probably be my last post before the weekend so just wishing everyone safety, joy and full bellies.

-> I posted two fics in one day. Fear my productivity!

-> I think my comment pages look the same... but let me know if they don't? I'm not really sure how to check what other people see but I'll do the custom thing if it's an eyesore.

-> Lots of people are angry and talking of migrating. I always get the fear sweats when people talk of abandoning LJ for good because it took a LONG DAMN TIME to feel comfortable and build myself a little nest and I HATE MOVING. You lose things and there are boxes and you have to figure out when bin night is and then you realise you've gotten stuck next to the neighbours who play thrash metal at 4 in the morning. That being said, I actually have a DW account which I never use but will probably have to start. If someone could point me in the direction of easy instructions on cross-posting it would be appreciated. I do have an AO3 and I'll be slowly archiving stuff over there and also posting anything new. I'm thinking more and more people are actually just reading there given the way the responses have swung which is totes fine.

Lastly, have something prettier to look at than the current default comments page.

Your comment page is still 'custom' - if you have an S2 style page, it hasn't changed yet.

I don't want to move, either! I'll lose touch with people, i'll lose comms....it will suck!

I'm hoping for an easy work-around that people will use so we don't have to move.

He is definitely nicely distracting. :)

I know we've avoided a mass exodus thus far because people in general hate change but it's probably getting closer... :(

From: [identity profile] kellifer-fic.livejournal.com


Cool - I didn't want to have it be horrible and unusable and not realise it!

*clings*

I've been seeing some workarounds popping up here and there so if it is an issue I'll look at those. I know people roll their eyes when there are complaints about Facebook changing stuff because it's a free service but LJ has paying customers... I just don't understand switching out useful stuff when you have very vocal negative feedback leading up to it.

I just hate the thought of migrating completely because you always lose people.

Aside from using a client (like Semagic? I think that one works), the easiest way to crosspost is to post from Dreamwidth -- they have a built in crossposting tool that allows you to make one post to multiple accounts, you just have to set them up (which I believe is as easy as inputting your username and password, but I haven't set one up in a while. I can find the info for you though if you're interested :D).

This! It's insane and ridiculous. If this were a free service, i'd grin and bear it, but it's *not*, i pay to have an lj and i'd like the people i pay to *listen* to me.

I've seen two workarounds - not sure how easy they are to implement.

And - this is on a kink-meme, so nsfw.

Yeah, i don't wanna lose my lj/fandom community, but they are making it *so* hard....

I'll have a look around - I'm sure I can figure it out if that's the case - thanks hon! :D

I know the mass exodus hasn't happened like it keeps threatening to do but I'm sure we're going to reach the tipping point at some stage. :(

I know!
And i'm pretty sure a lot of my comms don't have a page over there....
It's all so frustrating!

I'm both theladyscribe and theroadislife on DW, but theroadislife is the account I actually use (fannish stuff is locked, bc I've linked to it on my FB before).

If you come over, you can hang out with me! :)

OMG - Dreamwidth is on the denied list inside business hours for my work... LJ is not... argh!

I'll linky once we hit lunch time... heh.

Oh noes!! I think i'm out, what do i have that's close.....

From: [identity profile] amber1960.livejournal.com


I don't see much change in the comments format...I too have DW and AO3 which I don't use that much and I hope LJ get their act in order...

From: [identity profile] kellifer-fic.livejournal.com


Yes, absolutely!

I've seen the comment form on other journals and it's fugly because it's really basic - it's like they've gone backwards in design.
