- sosuke 11y agoFor fun I wanted to see what it would look like http://i.imgur.com/IiLVfU5.png http://i.imgur.com/IiLVfU5.png There is often a bit of truth in a joke. I wonder if the "medium" would change the reception of a story.
- nhf 11y agoIn all seriousness, I've only run into two groups that (in my personal experience) still use LJ: Eastern Europeans, especially Russians, and pop-culture related "creators" (which is the broad brush that I'm painting fan art, fanfiction, etc with). It's a really weird mix.
- notlisted 11y agoFunny, to me it was an indicator of her age (ie when she started using the Internet). I have the same reaction to articles on blogger. I associate Medium with minimalist know-it-all bearded fixie hipster programmers (under 35). :p Still better then the SV(u)btle peeps (but less exclusive, by invitation only peeps, let's keep it classy!).
- jholman 11y agoI agree with you (strongly about medium, though I disagree about blogger). Or, to put it in terms more related to the article... Medium is nouveau riche, LJ is authentic aristocracy. If you think Medium is "nice middle-class", it means you're lower-middle-class. PS: I can't tell if I'm kidding or not. PPS: what does it say about my class that I thought these post-scripts are a good idea?
- notlisted 11y agoCorrect insertion of the extra P tells me so much about you. This whole social class stuff is quite funny when you start thinking about it. I'm terribly judgmental it seems...
