Eh, I'm not too stressed about it. Not because I think it's good or anything but because I don't HAVE a facebook, so I can't exactly accidentally crosspost something and if someone crossposts a public post of mine, well, it's the freaking internet. People can do that ANYWAY just not with such handy buttons. The one issue I do hope they sort out is it looks like there might be an issue with flock-breaking if the person crossposting already has access to flocked content, but I'm a bit hazy on that and my flist is maniacally small and, well, AGAIN, people can flock break if they choose to already, it just requires copy-pasting instead of a helpful button.

Basically it sucks but I don't think it's the end of the world mainly cus good luck finding anywhere perfect on the internets.

If you want to go to DW though, I'm pretty sure there's an automatic way to just port your entire LJ over there so it shouldn't be too time consuming. And then you can just automatically cross-post to LJ too if you want to.

As I understand it though, Facebook hasn't actually bought LJ? They're just paying them money to do this crossposting crap.
