Confused about the new LJ TOS. I had to agree to it, but it says it does not apply to people with paid/permanent accounts, and I don't understand how that works
( Read more... )
I just don't understand this freaking out and "Putin drama" every time LJ updates anything. At all. It always looks like a complete overreaction to me And it does this time. Unless one is a leader of Russian opposition, it is a complete non-issue I think. And if one is then LJ is the least of one's problems.
i found it kind of confusing... i wish i knew why they were still processing payments through a US corporation? and this seemed like a really sudden announcement-- rather than giving us a heads up to at least be aware of potential new changes and export our info if we want to opt out of the new TOS.
i don't object to using sites based outside the US... in some cases i prefer it. i do object to a lack of transparency, though. :(
I would be very interested in figuring out how best to stay connected with you on the internet, as you're one of the people with whom I would most hate to lose regular touch, internets or otherwise! I will most likely stay here with LiveJournal, because I'm irrationally attached to my beloved platform, despite my feelings about its current ownership political climate. However! I feel like I don't currently have a dreamwidth account, but it can't be the end of the world hard for me to get one. And I may have actually set one up years ago but forgotten.
TL;DR whatever you choose to do, I'll personally stay connected!
I really want to stay connected to you too! <3 If you stay on LJ, I will continue to follow you here, but I haven't decided if I will continue to cross-post, especially f-locked posts.
If you have a DW account, it's not under the same name as your LJ one (and the name is available). They have a tool that lets you import all your posts if you want, and the interface is very similar.
