Late to the party

plonqMissed last call by a few years, and the dance floor is covered in 3 cm of dust.
When I moved over to Dreamwidth a few years ago, it never occured to me to look for any communities. I'd joined a few on Livejournal (all of them long dead now), and the thought that the same things might exist on DW simply never entered my head.
I searched around and finally find a wiki listing a bunch of them. I jumped to a few that interested me, and discovered that they were as dead as the ones over on LJ. The most recently living one I checked last had activity in 2012.
It's not like I can't find the same interests on Reddit, but I liked the smaller, more intimate feel of the LJ communities where everyone knew everyone else.
Oh well. There's no point in dwelling on the past. Reddit is fine.
And LJ/DW serve a different purpose.
