Did Cohost have an active community as well? If they did, it's a shame they'd be shutting down then.
I did also enjoy the more aesthetic-focused areas on Tumblr, having my blog being a feed of things that I thought looked nice and all. I also attempted to engage in longer-form interactions, mostly roleplaying and writing, but those never lasted long. I would have liked to experience LJ at its peak, it seemed really fun, so I guess I'm trying to replicate that on here, though it's probably a lot more quiet here in comparison. It doesn't bother me a lot, though. There's a fair bit of 2000s nostalgia making the rounds, so maybe long-form blogging will see a comeback. Who knows?
Not gonna lie though, the thought of anyone I know IRL discovering this makes me shudder a bit. Haha.
