(Anonymous) 2022-01-16 09:48 am (UTC)(link)I haven't been in fandom (nor alive, at that) during Livejournal's heyday, but I do feel a nostalgia for the unlived whenever it's mentioned. If it was anything like Dreamwidth - which, at least in the code and form and function, it must've been, and, from my experience, those things heavily weight in on how a platform could/should be used - I think I would've loved it.
It must be conceded that, at any point during the history of any human culture, there were conflicts. There was wank. There were assholes. However, on Dreamwidth and LJ, it's so easier to avoid them; the granularity of the Access/friending system, for one, prevents a lot of wank that Tumblr, for example, can't.
Oh! And threaded comments. May I ask when even did they fall out of fashion in fandom? In any community space, they're a must - how else are you supposed to see a discussion's entire context and span? In a way, I pity the part of my generation growing up on Tumblr. (And, while it isn't the nicest place, I'm glad my first exposure to fandom was on Reddit.)
