digitalsidheApparently Livejournal has just announced a new, homophobic AF policy. Basically, journals must now comply with Russian anti-LGBTQ laws that consider any mention of queer material to be a discussion of "sexual deviancy" and hence illegal.
Charlie Stross is moving his LJ over here to DW, too.
Oddly, I am actually leaving my LJ in operation — because the only thing(s) on it are entries like this one that point out why you should move your journal over to Dreamwidth instead. It costs me nothing — it's a free account — and maybe it'll help move more people off LJ.
(This is one of the very few entries that I'm bothering to cross-post over there anymore. Edit: Or not. My DW inbox is giving me messages saying "Failed to crosspost entry to digitalsidhe@LiveJournal: Terms of Service agreement required". Even when I browse around LJ, I can't find where I'd even agree to the new ToS, so fuckit. Not something I'm gonna spend that much time on; I've got a nice dinner to get to.)

Date: 2017-09-16 02:49 pm (UTC)So when I realised what I'd done, I moved my content here and I've now deleted both my LJ accounts.
It must be hurting them to have so many people abandoning ship. I do hope so anyway!
