Nov. 29th, 2021 21:22IT IS ALMOST DECEMBER!!
So ever since I had enough disposable income to feel okay about using it, I've been quietly trying to buy Dreamwidth points during December, during the annual bonus sale. I don't...use them? I mean, I keep meaning to, I really like the idea of having a gazillion icons and who knows, maybe now that I have a functional computer* I'll actually play around with graphics options.
The point really is that even though I don't use this platform as much as I want to, this is the only platform where I don't feel uncomfortable using it. Sure, by modern web standards it's a bit clunky and not as full of pictures and without an app, it's only going to sink further into obscurity. But...I am not constantly unsure what I'm clicking or what I'm doing and I can come here and just BE. If I was into any active fandom on dreamwidth, I'd probably stop checking all other social media sites in a heartbeat.
Anyway, that's my spiel! If they had stickers, like AO3, I would probably put them on my new computer*.
*I GOT A NEW COMPUTER! It's so SHINY and FUNCTIONAL.
