(Note: the purpose of this entry existing on both LJ and DW [as opposed to just LJ] is to be consistent. I will explain in the comments.)
Poll #2079996 Maybe we don't know where we're going...
Where should I copy all of my content to now that my DW account is suspended and LJ is apparently going to be shut down by 2019?

Date: Sun, Apr. 1st, 2018 21:59 (UTC)When I posted my April Fools entry with the "where should I move my content to now??" poll in it and crossposted it to LJ, I had to edit the LJ entry to make a separate LJ version of the poll [to keep up the illusion that whichever journal you're not reading is suspended], but it turned out I couldn't edit a LJ entry to add a new poll to it. So on LJ I had to post a separate entry with the poll in it and link to that.
But even on April Fools' Day I don't like the idea of having an entry on my LJ or DW with no counterpart on the other site, so I manually crossposted that LJ entry with the poll to DW for consistency - the same way after I had all my pre-May 13, 2017 entries copied to DW, I started editing the DW entries that were supposed to have polls in them to be like this so you can at least access the polls.
Lesson learned: next time I make an entry with a poll in it, don't use DW's crosspost feature at all. Just write both entries separately and post them at the same time.
