I feel very rusty about posting to Dreamwidth, and as I'm posting this, I find myself thinking, "Wow, I'm doing this all wrong."
But what I did learn doing some DW clean-up earlier is how absolutely rusty my HTML is, not having had to use it on another social media site in several years. I hadn't realized how much it had decayed until I had to look up whether I was using the correct tag for something I wanted to do.
I'm currently dithering over whether or not to delete my Tumblr come Dec. 17. I don't post original art, so I don't expect to be purged, but also I hate Fan Twitter and I'm not sure people are actually migrating back here/anywhere in particular. I know a lot of fandom stuff has been moving to Discord over the past year or so anyway, but I still don't really "get" fandom Discords (not least... where you find the information on where they are to join them?) so I'm not sure how helpful that is.
I am absolutely relieved at how much slower Dreamwidth is. Even adjusting for the fact that the overall volume is lower, it's just so much less all the time. I remember actually backreading everything on my Tumblr dash back when I first made the switch over, but I haven't done that in probably five years, and now I'm realizing that's something I actually missed about LJ/DW fandom?
