My sympathies. Losing a favorite service sucks, and there isn't a close match for Twitter.
If you haven't seen it yet, I posted Twitter Exodus Continuing. It has a review of November activities and links to news about Twitter, with an invitation for discussion or links to other relevant posts. I'm trying to help Twitter refugees network here and learn Dreamwidth. I know it's not at all the same at Twitter stylistically, but it does at least some of the things.
>> I hope EM suffers horribly for, well, everything he's done to so many people.<<
Can't say I blame you.
>>I'm hoping to get on the new book publishing instance soon too. I'm reconnecting with friends from the Bird app and with new folks and eventually, I think it will feel good, but right now is in the learning stages. I/Queen of Swords Press are also out on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and Discord, plus a monthly newsletter. Which one would think would be enough, but the Bird app was our main channel for outreach and discoverability. Grrr.<<
Well, my DW fans are avid readers. Would you like to write something about it that I could post on my blog?
>>Then its on to the next couple of book we have planned for next year and the anthology I've been wanting to do for ages. Jennie and I had another class accepted for the Loft Literary Center and I've got some ideas for nonfiction proposals of various kinds I need to get cracking on. Fiction projects are inching along slowly. And now I need to go to bed. More news soon!<<
That sounds interesting.
I checked but there doesn't seem to be an active Publishing community on Dreamwidth. You might consider starting one. There are lots of authors on here, and probably some other publishers too.
