Something one might not realize if one has not posted to this thread: it is possible that there are far more responses to this post than the 15 displayed. I submitted the following on 04/14/2017, and have yet to receive any acknowledgment.

Why wasn't an e-mail sent out to all users advising them that this change was coming?

Additionally, I feel it would have been courteous to offer users a choice at the point of consenting to the new Terms of Service.

Instead of compelling users to accept the new ToS in order to even log in, it would have been better to give them a 30 day grace period following implementation. For example, if they selected the "Not Now" option, they could have been pointed to the Export Journal page to give them the opportunity to save all the content they'd created prior to this new situation.

I have had a LiveJournal for 16 years. While I still like the platform, I would have appreciated being given notice at least 30 days prior to the changeover.

Thank you for reading.

All comments to the thread are automatically screened: it requires the moderator to unscreen them. It really makes me wonder how many users have posted questions that are going unanswered.

I think I'd better look into Dreamwidth sooner rather than later.
