I'm sticking around

I hadn't heard about the latest bullsh*t with LiveJournal, but I'm sticking around for now. I have a back-up under the same name at Dreamwidth, if it comes to that, but I've never liked DW as much, and LJ is where I have my permanent account and ten billion icons. The idea of losing that and more makes me a little sick to my stomach, to be honest.

I should probably go back up my creative writing journal, to be on the safe side. *sigh*

Like every other major change with LJ, though, I suspect this will end up being another tempest in a teapot, because I'm an optimist that way.

Pretty much. LJ users are crotchety and disinclined to acquiesce to change. I'm a little leery of all the servers being in Russia just from an accessibility perspective, and I will be a LOT more careful (and I'm already VERY careful) when I post about work, but beyond that, I'm not worried. If everything ends up shutting down, well, that'll be that. I've had this account for nearly fifteen years on LJ, I'm not about to abandon it now.
