You do not need to inherit Facebook's idiocy! I am not thrilled with your new "share" feature, especially as you allow people to crosspost
other people's friends-locked and private entries on FB and Twitter. Some of us like to use LJ because it's anonymous, because no one in the real world (like those who know us on Facebook) can track an LJ entry back to us. If LJ becomes as person-locator friendly as FB, then what's the bloody point?
Cut for
a fantastic summary of the situation and
LJ's actual news post on the issueNeedless to say, please don't crosspost any of my entries onto FB or Twitter. I don't want them there. No one in my incestuous little veterinary community needs to know that I write slash fanfiction. No one in my family needs to know that either. Just... don't. I don't want to friends-lock my journal. I don't want to disallow anonymous posting. I don't want to ditch my LJ entirely and I sure as hell don't want to have to police everything I say here like I do on my FB as a compromise.
Let's nip this stupidity in the bud, shall we?
