I don't have a DW account. There is no difference between them and LJ so I don't see the point. LJ is home.

I got one because I wasn't ready for a "where's everybody going?" moment. But so far everyone seems to still be here, so I don't feel the need to be there too much.

Took me long enough to learn and love life on LJ, so I ain't going nowhere fast. Especially when some lovely gal gifted me up to 2011 right here.*g*

I haven't been very happy with LJ policies and attitudes, so you could say I was very eager to find alternatives to this.
Dreamwith is that to me: and awesome alternative, fandom friendly and with a Diversity Statement that make me fall in love, deeply.
I love that even the most stupid question or doubt I had was answered. And I love the DreamSheeps *laughs*
I have made it my home, I'm posting from there, as its crossposting tool is awesome, and as easy as tick a ticky-box.
Hell, I'm even buying a premium account, for God's sake! I never, ever considered buy one from LJ. *shrugs*
You should take a look, and then decide.

LJ had deleted communities and fan-journals. They are officially, and by their own words, no fandom friendly. They put adds on your journal, and you can get up one morning with an homophobic add from a hate-group all in the top of your friends page. This actually happened some days ago, and, as much as the add was took down after people complained, and they even apologize for it, is something is gonna keep happening once and again. And, seriously, I don't want MY place associate with that kind of adds.
And let's not forget they took off some words from the search box: gay, queer, slash, homoerotic, depression... Censorship anyone?
So, no. This is not my place anymore. I haven't deleted my journal... yet. But once I had it imported, and I had my reading filters ready for those who are gonna stay here, I'm done.

PS: And I should learn to type, or, at least, to check what I wrote before hit post *facepalms*
