wyld_dandelyonI liked being able to cross-post my fiction to Facebook, and my cute kitten stories too, but I don't want to cross-post everything! The changes I would have asked for were to be able to change the setting of the posts (from friends only to wider visibility) when and if I so choose, and the option to choose which picture to use as the thumbnail. This-all-or nothing stuff removes functionality, and is really annoying! Sigh.
And letting people cross-post a comment made in a locked journal is just wrong.
Sure, you can cut and paste your own words, and put your words both in a locked entry and somewhere else, but doing so manually gives you the time and incentive to think about how much is really yours to share. And it doesn't provide a link back to someone who made it very clear that they want privacy.
At least enough people are complaining that I can hope LJ will fix this.
Eventually.
