May be the end of an LJ era :-(

According to news LJ has been placed on a spam list, making it so that reply notifications e-mails don't get sent. On my regular LJ it is one thing, on communities it is another. If I post, I want to see replies. There is the option of remembering where I posted and seeing if there are replies, but that is hard on a lot of comms, which get loads of replies.

Debating whether this is the straw that gets me onto Dreamwidth, how does Tumblr work?

Hmm, for journal entries, I may crosspost to Dreamwidth, and then maybe not enable comments on LJ?

getting on spam lists is nothing unusual. The plan they have to get off the lists looks robust to me, so don't worry about it for now.

You can always enable IM notifications.

IM notifications are a consideration. But then I don't know if I want to give my AIM information to LJ...

LJ IM - if you're using Pidgin you can log in to your LJ account and receive notifications that way :)

Oh okay, don't use Pidgin, but I did just set it so that I'm notified of comments via the LJ inbox!

It's very useful indeed.

I don't know anything about Dreamwidth, so I couldn't say for sure. But maybe it's worth experimenting?

I'm trying to see what happens!
