Sep. 13th, 2024 10:53 pmWay back in the day I was in touch with a bunch of mostly science fiction fans and filkers I'd met in person at cons on the new-fangled Livejournal. After some years stuff happened and Livejournal got bought by a Russian opration which kinda spooked people. Dreamwidth popped up at some point and I think a bunch of us copied our LJs over, but what actually happened in practice was everyone migrated to the then-stil-newish Facebook.
(And I think some of you have younger and more terminally-online in-person friends and might see them all sorts of places, but all the people I've met in person are on Facebook, all the other sites are all people I've never actually met in person.)
And over the years there have been just a couple people I only knew online who posted on Dreamwidth, I followed a few, for a while.
And now...the cohost people are moving to Dreamwidth! I didn't see that coming! It's gonna be 2005 all over again! Except I get to be a girl now!
