to those moving to dreamwidth, since there's a lot of you

I'm happy to continue reading your posts if you crosspost them here (and I hope you will) but I do not have plans at present to set up an account there, so I am unable to offer any feedback if commenting is closed here.

If a dreamwidth post is cross-posted here and there is a link in the post you can follow, dreamwidth will recognize your LJ ID and allow you to comment there.

Oh? I never tried. I assumed one had to be on OpenID or somesuch.

The first time, the process is a pain in the ass. One is bounced around between various Dreamwidth pages, then to LJ who asks you if it is OK to do what Dreamwidth requested. But then Dreamwidth remembers the info and it is as painless as replying to an LJ post.

There's also the option of syndicating the RSS feeds of folk's public entries so they can be read here without them having to cross-post.

I have some friends doing so, though I finally used the openid thing, the few comments I have left I get no email notification of so I've just stopped. If you've moved to dreamwidth, I consider it a voluntary exile.
