Dreamwidth - anyone else thinking about jumping ship?

[strangetomato]

I've been checking out Dreamwidth a little lately, and I'm really considering moving over there once it opens up to the public (April 30). Some major pluses are the "reading page" instead of the "friends" list, which has always been reminiscent of grade five girl gangs at best (even just the new name is far better, but it also separates "friends only" access and the things you want to follow into two distinct things- THANK YOU!) and this amazing diversity statement. It seems to take everything that's good about livejournal and fix everything that sucks. As it looks right now, I'll be switching.

Is anyone else considering this?

I'm a stubborn mule. I'm stuck in my old ways. I've been around LJ for awhile, and I'm just used to it. I like it enough to stay, and I don't have any real complaints. I haven't even at Dreamwidth, and I really doubt I will. Half of my LJ-ing is for sims, the other is for a Harry Potter based series of comms. Unless both communities moved, I probably won't.

Obviously, if you leave, I'll still check out your story, but I think I'm good here. (At least until my paid time runs out XD)

It seems like a lot of fannish activity is moving over there (I was drawn in by the mentions on metafandom), but it remains to be seen if it can break free of livejournal and become as popular. I'm interested enough to try it out.

Well, I would appreciate that. ^_^ I'd still check in on my friends back her in lj land, no doubt.
