*hugs* I'm really pissed off at the comment notifications thing, I've been refreshing every single thing I've commented on just in case. :/
And also, if not for a few awesome people on LJ (*cough*you'reoneofem*cough*), I would have moved to DW entirely and deleted this account. :( I like facebook for a few things, like laughing/facepalming at the stupid things my classmates/co-workers say and sharing photos with a few people I actually like to hang out with. Custom friends group posting is awesome too, but kind of a hassle at times.
I've missed you posting, and lotsa luck with that project. ♥
I agree. I am on FB, but I prefer keeping my FB and LJ/DW separate. Plus I never post anything important on FB. FB has a habit of giving away your personal info.
I curse the day the founder of LJ sold it to a commercial entity. They're fucking up again and again and people will end up fed up and will go away. And I fucking like it here, dammit! I can't believe they're not working their asses off trying to solve this as fast as possible, but the fact is that the problem with the notifications persists and it's damned annoying.
I was just talking this morning with velvetina_wonka about how I hate seeing all my brother and SiL's inane comments to one another on facebook...but shockingly I use facebook to send Jennifer messages about work - so it actually has a vague function for me.
Otherwise I kind of wish it would die in a fire and I definitely rue the day that LJ ever hooked up with them.
Facebook is a pain in the backside. Too many people are "friends" with people they don't know, and the way information is spread is frankly disgusting and disturbing.
I too value my privacy, and as many people on LJ are those who wish to have hobbies/interests/wishes/thoughts seperate from RL, to save from whatever hassles it would bring, LJ should capitalize on the fact that that is why many people got an account here.
