cloudsinvenice | More Tumblr migration-related links (Reply)

EDIT: This has been sitting in my drafts for days; I meant to have a proper update on Monday but I'm very scattered right now as I wasn't well for a couple of days. So meanwhile, here's this:

I'm trying to resist my curatorial urges because I can't possibly document everything, but I am going to keep listing the posts I find most interesting/useful:

-

greywash summarised the history of Strikethrough on LiveJournal, and its similarities to the current situation, extremely well, and explored what we need in our long-term fandom solution, which may not be DW or Pillowfort or anything that exists... yet.
-

pangodillo made a post, alluded to in the one above, about what DW lacks, particularly for people used to Tumblr or to whom a comment box is kind of intimidating
-

snickfic made the No-Frills Multifandom Friending Meme
-

angelofthenorth made a non-fandom friending meme
-

staranise posted Basic Dreamwidth for Tumblr users, which is a wonderfully concise guide to the basics - the sort of stuff old-school LJ/DW people may not even realise is unintuitive about DW when you've been used to Tumblr.
-

conuly rounded up many how-to links and resources, and importantly has figured out how to follow your friends' Tumblr posts from Dreamwidth
-

niqaely tells us how to cross-post from Instagram to Dreamwidth
-

kore tells us how to filter out tags on your Reading page

Special thanks to

umadoshi who alerted me to several of these!
