Post on LJ, destroy Ukraine

« What's the biggest example of the domino meme in my life? I'm gonna have to go with "I got bored on the sleepy overnight shift at the data center -> Russia invaded Ukraine". »


This is an epic thread by [staff profile] denise about how she came to be involved with LiveJournal and how the creation of DW came about, with some bad stuff happening along the way.

I was around for the LJ-being-sold-off-and-sold-again-to-the-Russians debacle - like, not working for them, but participating on LJ and watching the rise of Russian LJ'ers, the decline of services, and finally freaking and heading here. I knew it sucked, but I didn't know how badly it sucked for the Russians! That's terrible.
