We seem to have a fair number of common interests - star wars and tolkien and the mcu - so in my quest to find fandom people now that we're all fleeing tumblr I thought I'd say hi :)

Hello! Super glad to find people who also share my interesting mix of fandoms.
I really wish tumblr had picked a better time to have a melt down (it is the end of the semester and i have finals the HELL), but I've been meeting some really cool people, so that's been a good thing.

It really was terrible timing. I'm supposed to be writing about 30 pages of final papers right now, and instead I'm on here, trying to figure out dreamwidth so that I don't get left behind. I was kind of afraid I'd just log on someday between projects and find tumblr dead.

Same. I put all of my eggs in the tumblr basket, and now we're all set to lose this huge part of fandom.
There are already a couple people that I can't find anymore, and I'm only now stumbling my way through dreamwidth. How do you even do the things?!?

I feel like I'm already missing people off of my tumblr dash, but I also follow so many people it'll be hard to identify who. It's really sad and frustrating. Dammit capitalists, and fandom's tendency to go all in on one hellsite at a time.

All I can tell is that I haven't been seeing as many people on main as I usually do, and I Don't Like It. (Not that anyone does) I just wish fandom had a good backup site where we all knew to go when stuff like this goes down. Here's hoping fandom actually Learns from this, but history has shown we're not really good at that.
