Re: It's not because of tumblr, imo

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, ia

LJ was already well on it's way out years before Tumblr really became fandom central. I think the earliest mass exodus I can really pinpoint was Strikethrough, but I'm sure there were others before it. And after that, it was like the floodgates opened. Every few months another big community would just quietly fade away.

LJ had a lot of problems as a fandom hub, just as many and just as bad as tumblr's problems. It went beyond the Russian buyout and the DDOS attacks. Outside of organized comment threads and easy-to-build communities, LJ just wasn't very creator- OR consumer-friendly. And once users start leaving it's nearly impossible to keep things going. The quieter a community gets, the less likely people are to post, and the smaller a community is the less likely new users are to join.
