Hi again

I know Denise said that Dreamwidth activity jumped up after the Reddit thing, so I'm kind of curious if the uhhh decisions made at Twitter will have a similar effect. I don't expect DW to ever take off in a big way (and probably wouldn't want it to!) and I don't really welcome Twitter's ongoing self-immolation just because it was so sudden and has such outsized effects, but I'm not above enjoying more activity here/at Tumblr.

I wonder this as well -- I think Reddit -> DW makes slightly more sense, because the formats are more similar, but I certainly met lots of new people here after the last Twitter exodus, so who can say.

I agree! I wouldn't be that sad if the big centralized formats ate themselves and fandom + other online communities were more dispersed, but I don't seriously expect a return to yesteryear. Yet clearly the big social media hubs are collapsing, so who knows what will come next? At least some of the people scattering out might scatter in our direction.
