So, according to my cross-feed over at LiveJournal, I posted 329 times this year, with, on LiveJournal, 115 comments on those entries. Here on DW, that would be 328 times, as I know I posted to LJ once from Instagram & DW won't let me do that... & I know for certain there would be far fewer comments on my entries here - despite a bit of friend/reader crossover between platforms, people still seem to comment more on LJ than here... or so it seems. A shout out to Paserbyp, who comments on nearly all my entries here on DW. I should comment more on yours!!

Even so, it's not a lot of expressed interest in my content - be it political ranting, photographs, pontifications on the personal front, or being pissed off about the decline of western civilised behaviour... & more photos. Not sure how I feel about that - whether 'tis nobler in the mind to stick to my guns (& lens) & just keep doing more of the same, or go back to how I've been with my Journal in previous years - kind of sporadic, mostly reclusive & probably busy with other things. Certainly this years approximately quadrupling of entries hasn't seemed to strike much of a chord with too many people, but I'm quite proud of the effort & definitely stand by every single rant & pronouncement... even if it seems to be the equivalent of an old man sitting on a park bench yelling at things only he can see, while the rest of the world quickens its pace as it passes by

How come you still have access to LJ? I thought they weren't hosting anymore.

DW lets you cross-post to LJ, even though the 2 sites are not exactly friends. Certainly LJ doesn't return the favour

It still baffles me how some of my posts will draw a dozen or more comments, and others don't get a single response.

Sometimes I'm like *tap tap tap* "Is this thing on?"

[waitingman]

I know... And it may be a little hypocritical of me to complain about ta lack of commentary, when I can be guilty of just reading & not responding to others entries!

I closed my LJ when SUP bought LJ only because I know with whom we’ll have deal. Regarding expressed interest in your content, I’m very, very interested, because you and I very different and of course, you don’t need to feel guilty not often comment on my entries, because my DW designed only for myself and indeed everyone welcome, but I understand how difficult sometime to follow some person with different background and life stile.

I still very much appreciate your comments... I do have a bit of a problem when your entries are in Russian (?) though... I never did get around to learning that language when I was younger!

If you're interesting in my entries in Russian then I will try to translate it for you...
