The ramblings of a starship captain's husband.
Dreamwidth
I was reading an article on how LJ's servers are now all in Russia (glad I left LJ years ago), and then I remembered my Dreamwidth account.
Is anyone who reads this also over there?
I really should be more active there. It's just so difficult to make new friends there - there aren't many people in the first place and the ones that ARE there somehow don't seem to be too active. Or maybe this is just my impression? Ah, new year, new luck - I'll give it another try. If anyone is there, my username there is mr_picard. (Naturally.)




I am over there and will add you. Since communities never become a thing on DW, it's super hard to get connected with people there. There is no place to mingle. No FFAs or other stuff.
Thank you so much, very much appreciated! Yes, I noticed the lack of communities there... and the lack of friending memes, too. They were THE thing on LJ sometimes.
I recently found fancake and fandomweekly, which help make it feel a bit more lively. I literally found them by poking through the profile pages of people who said they were having a good time on DW, never would have found them otherwise.
Oooh thanks for the recommendations, I shall check for these! They sound interesting!
I know of at least one person I speak to regularly who posts over there. I keep meaning to make an account just so that I can follow their blog. If I do I'll look you up as well.
Yay! I'm always looking for friends there but it's so difficult. I had so many on LJ and for the life of me I can't remember how I managed to get them all!
