What's LJ done...

...that's making a lot of people jump ship to Dreamwidth?

(I really need to start getting onto LJ more than once a week)

I see it appears to be the cross-posting thing that has upset people. And: understandable. I'm not eager to jump ship myself, though...I really do not feel like building a whole new journal from scratch (icons and everything) and I have so much history here...I don't want to leave behind all my posts and fics...

Well, as to that: DW lets you import your journal, friends, interests, tags etc. all in a matter of a few hours (I was amazed at the speed of the import; considering I've been posting for 7,5 years I'd have thought it would take much longer). The only downside is though that icons are restricted to just 15 for free accounts, so it won't let you import all of them (unless you opt for a paid account, when you're allowed 100).
