filkertomIf you're reading this on LiveJournal, you know that things have gone just a bit worng.
This morning, our LJ Overlords, in their infinite wisdom, rolled out new functionality for the comments. In doing so, they have pretty much broken comments instead.
No subject lines. No preview (remember that the preview includes spellcheck and HTML check). No selecting icons by drop-down -- you have to pick them from a window where they're loaded in order of the dates they were uploaded. No "thread" option.
I'm already crossposting at DreamWidth. It will take no effort to migrate. I would rather not, but this is silly.
ETA: Okay, I've changed the header color so that user names are legible in comments. Yeesh.

Date: 2011-12-21 01:15 pm (UTC)Well, I can still leave a subject line in yours...
Date: 2011-12-21 01:24 pm (UTC)Main objective: to make a comfortable, but do not dilute the cosmic pretzel.
Which makes everything clearer, really.

Date: 2011-12-21 08:34 pm (UTC)Not seeing much change here.
Date: 2011-12-21 08:57 pm (UTC)OK, the actual BUTTON for "Preview" was behind the "More Options" button. That may be a change - and there is still a clicky-box for "Check Spelling during preview" like there used to be. I've still got a subject line.
So with my account, there seems to be very little changed. Maybe it only affects Premium Accounts. Is that their business plan - keep the people with free accounts happy while pissing off the paying customers?
