LJ is poorly run, even if it is a challenging platform. It doesn't help of course that it comes under freqeunt political attacks due to its now heavily Russian subsidies.

Dreamwidth

It's an LJ style blogsite which looks and behaves like LJ used to before they tried to be facebookski.

You can set up a free account (no ads) there and do an easy transfer of your stuff here for back up and they also allow you to x post entries to LJ.

Take a look here and hit on 'create' to set up an account- I'm cmcmck there too.

I know what you mean about where we want to be; and I think that place may well be a factor.
I shall persist! I like LJ; I've been here for a lot of years now...

thanks for this; we do use Norton - and I think our Old Uncle is worth the struggle, too, - even if I get a bit annoyed with him, sometimes!
