Looking back upon my life, faded memories on the wall

Hey, when did LJ stop letting you skip back friends views by more than two weeks?

A while back I split my reading across two custom friendslists, so the people who post less often weren't drowned out by more frequent posters and the comms I'm in. I noticed today that if I filter the noisy list down to personal journals only (http://.livejournal.

Hmm.

Yet another reason to be glad of my Dreamwidth account, and having imported all of my LJ posts over there already.

[shrydar]

Indeed. How're things going over there? I've not paid much attention to DW; LJ Twitter and FB keep me busy enough.

[bunny_m]

It's been going fine.

I've been posting to DW and then cross-posting automatically from there since DW went live a couple years ago and no issues yet.

I suddenly feel the need to export my years of LJ ...

[shrydar]

It's not particularly confidence inspiring, is it.

I bought a parrot. That has taken up all of my free time and a mass amount of not free time. *shrugs*

That and I have nothing nice to say, so not said anything in a while lol.

[shrydar]

All our free time and then some has been occupied by selling our house..

[frankthepirate]

going anywhere nice or just a change of location?

How is your neck shiny btw?

[shrydar]

Mostly just a change of location. We love the house, don't like the lack of back yard, and rabbit1080 hates being this side of the freeway. I think the location's really good, but we've been here five years now, so it's her turn :)

Neck shiny is behaving really well; barely needs maintaining. Will get some skin-divers after the house goes through. And some shoes, and some clothes, maybe a ps3 in the post christmas sales..

I noticed when you pointed it out, and asked about it in the news thing. They got all snarky and told me it wasn't new behaviour - so I googled 'lj friends limits' and found a reference to the limit as an existing thing way back as far as 2008- but I swear when I went away in february I was still able to skip back a month.

I'm wondering if the reason I'm noticing it now is because I had an S1 friends page & they've now disabled that style system or something whacky like that.

Annoying, anyway.

[shrydar]

Yes, they've definitely been fiddling with things. All my views dropped down from twenty to ten entries a page a few months back :(

[johjohjoh]

Very annoying for littl'ns like me who only log on every three months or so and expect full updates...

[shrydar]

Yes, not good. You could open up everyone across 35 tabs?

[johjohjoh]

yes... I have been considering it... :)
