Moving to DW

[neeuqdrazil]

So, LJ's latest privacy fuckery (the semi-automatic reposting of comments to Twitter and Facebook,) has made me realise that I really don't want to hang out over there anymore

what is your DW?
do you need an invite code?

[neeuqdrazil]

My DW is neeuqdrazil. :)

Hmm, might be time for me to consider moving as well...bleh, I hate change :P

At least mine seems to have defaulted to off, and I have no plans of connecting those accounts. I can understand crossposting for, y'know, posts, but comments? wtf?

[neeuqdrazil]

My issue isn't with *my* crossposting. It's with other people cross-posting their comments to *my* flocked posts.

(Not that I think that my friends would do that, but as it's a default on...)

Cross-posting isn't available as an option on flocked posts, only on public ones - at least, as I understand it. The buttons do show up, but they're greyed out. (If I'm wrong on this, someone please correct me.)

[neeuqdrazil]

My understanding is from this.

Since I'm not willing to link my twitter/facebook ids to LJ to test, I have to go with what other folks are saying.

(Also, I've just checked - for me (who has not linked anything,) the boxes are greyed out on both flocked and public posts.)

[misslynx]

There's nothing automatic about it - you have to specifically connect your accounts, and enable cross-posting. Nothing is cross-posted anywhere unless you tell it to be. So I really don't see any privacy fuckery here.

[neeuqdrazil]

My issue is that if folks who are reading my LJ comment, and have cross-posting enabled, then their comments to my flocked posts will be cross-posted. People won't be able to read the post, but the comment will still be out there.

I'm also on DW as 50_ft_queenie. Haven't used my account in ages, but if you move over there, that might change. :)
