Yet more wonderful innovations from our Russian overlords

Oh, LJ, LJ, LJ. I wish I knew how to quit you. So now anybody's LJ when viewed on a mobile device will be in the annoying new style. You can opt out by going to Manage settings (which is, as ever, under profile, not my journal)- Display (not mobile), and click 'Use my journal's style when viewed on a mobile device' next to Mobile view. This returns your LJ to your own style. Anybody else's LJ remains in the horrible new style. (Why yes, I read other people's journals whom I haven't friended. Don't you?)

One can opt to view other LJs in one's own style, but that means it will always be in your own style, whether viewed on mobile or desktop. There seems to be no option for 'view everyone in their own style on my mobile'-- not until everyone else goes in and clicks that box.

Yeah, there are things I'll say on LJ that I won't say elsewhere.

The flight to FB. Whose shortcomings were amply demonstrated to me this weekend when a post of MaryAnn Mohanraj's got 232 comments and climbing. A piece of cake in LJ; FB will only show you 10 at a time, and not let you reply to replies.

And thanks for clicking. The more who do, the happier we all are.

Oh, and I went and clicked that box, in case it helps.
