Blogging while Rome- sorry, Twitter, burns.

I managed to remember my Dreamwidth password but I’ve forgotten how to navigate a blogging site in the decade plus of wading through memes on that hellbird app. I’ve tried Mastodon and it didn’t stick, and Instagram is okay but kind of a mess of sponsored posts, and sometimes I just want to yell into the void without having to photograph it first so… chances are this might be the Twitter replacement? Everything always circles back around to blogging.

I am very pleased to have multiple icon options back and to have this decade-old (two decades old?) work of art to appropriately sum up the sensation of watching yet another of your long-time social media homes get torn down by capitalism. I hope it’s nice when we get to the end of it.

The only downside is that I don’t have any image storage on LJ to utilise anymore so if I want to post cat pictures I’m going to have to work out some free picture storage. Sigh. Online upheaval is always so much admin.

edit: OH MY GOD there was a typo in that entry and I just…clicked the edit button and edited it out. In your face, Twitter.

Welcome back! You should actually have some image storage available on Dreamwidth; try this link. The images are only viewable on Dreamwidth and similar sites like LJ, but it sounds like that's all you'd be using it for anyway.

Hey that’s new since I was last here and very handy! Thank you! :D (I must post cat pictures as justification for taking about 1500 of them per day.)
