@douglasvb @pteryx @MaryAustinBooks @iakobsdesamos @dlakelan i dunno about deadjournal; i ported everything to dreamwidth before deleting my LJ. early adopter, 4-digit user number.... but yeah. russia was the last straw.
@rothko @pteryx @MaryAustinBooks @iakobsdesamos @dlakelan I pulled all of my ElJay content out into an export file that I was able to jam into a WordPress instance later although it's all set to private. So at least I've got an archive somewhere.
I think it was about when Six Apart took over that I stopped posting on ElJay. Then I finally exported my content and deleted everything when the Russian purchase went through and stuff started moving to Russia.
It was great when Live journal was still invite only. You had to know someone who trusted you enough with one of their very few invite codes to join.

@aleksimanninen @douglasvb @MaryAustinBooks @iakobsdesamos @dlakelan now this feels like a Dark Forest hypothesis (if not re: the Fermi paradox), where frontier model bots are the malign intelligences being avoided.
@ozdreaming @aleksimanninen @MaryAustinBooks @iakobsdesamos @dlakelan now we use tool to feed the bots poisoned data and trap them forever in endless fake pages. What a time to be alive.
