No further crossposting to LiveJournal

[julesjones]

Apparently LiveJournal has decided to block cross-posting from DreamWidth. Since I live at DreamWidth and cross-post for my friends who are LJ-only, this will be my last post here until such time as LJ stop heading down the path of being walled-garden prats. I might manually copy over a post about "buy my books", but otherwise manual copying is

Thanks for letting me know. I do look at posts on DW using Open ID. I hope that will continue because I won't be creating a DW account.

We have mutual access and reading from DreamWidth using your LJ account, so that should give you access to read my locked DW post. I hope...

I usually cross-post to LJ, but if they're blocking it now, I'll only stop by to read friends' posts. Are we friends on DW? I'd hate to miss your posts.

[julesjones]

Just checked - we have mutual subscription and access. It may not be obvious to you because I post so little these days. :-) (Brain got fried four years ago and I got out of the habit when I wasn't able to look at a full size backlit screen.)

Yep, I too have pretty much abandoned LJ because it's being so wonky. Bummer.

[julesjones]

Are you on DreamWidth, or have you given up on LJ-type blogging altogether?

[horace_hamster]

Not on DW or anything else. Maybe when I retire, but for now.... well, if nothing else, I'll see ya on AW once in a while!

I've been manually crossposting for years, so that won't change (we have mutual access, I think)

[julesjones]

We do. I'm now looking at my friends list on both sites and trying to work out if there are any people on LJ who I haven't tracked down on DW. Not everyone moved, and not everyone who did used the same username.

I only just got my LJ account working again. Not too many folks left though. I do have a Dreamwidth account too. I think.
