Livejournal. What the fuck are you doing.

... I am not impressed, here.

I'd been planning to make a proper entry today, but uh, that can wait.

Oh, and I changed the journal layout so that I'd actually be able to read comments. And entries. And whatnot. Not pleased with it, but it'll do for now.

What happened?

Dare I ask what I missed, or is it something only those who actually post more frequently than twice a year will see?

Feel better at any rate! Knit something to take your mind off it *subtly hides failed/slow knitting project under pillow* >3>

PS. Love the icon at any rate ^^

It's something that pretty much anyone who uses communities/fic-memes/etc will see.

Basically, they rolled out a site redesign for default comment pages. Okay, fine. Except that for the default (I.E. the previously most-readable format, which most communities/memes as well as personal journals used), some basic functionality was removed, like subject headings, parent-comment links, preview function, simple icon-select, etc. They replaced it with a bloated, nonfunctional design. Yick.

For people who just use journals, it won't matter so much I guess. But for people who use communities/memes a lot for discussion, it's a right pain, because many of the things that made talking that way run smoothly have been removed.

As a workaround, a lot of people are switching to custom-comment pages, but these have their own problems, as most of these formats aren't as readable as the default used to be, and very long discussion threads tend to go offscreen after a while, which is annoying.

I'M VERY FRUSTRATED -- but at least the kink meme switched from default to custom pages, so I will be able to do indexing now. (If they hadn't, then it would be impossible to navigate there, because the kink meme relies on subject lines)

Anyway. I just distracted myself by making cookies, so I'm still annoyed, but less flail-y about it. :Va
