I mean, mine is likely to be limited to this post right here, unless I see something to the effect of "this is the way we're going, we have ironed out the bugs, it's user friendly now, we're out of alpha and into beta." And I'm fine with that.

Pillowfort is in, what, its third year of dev? And I'm not convinced it's learned the right lessons, either, and after that boneheaded TOS move and the server issues, I lost a lot of faith in its ability to negotiate the hard ethical choices that are my highest priority. Other people's highest priority might be the ability to easily pass along images, or a seamless user interface, or to never, ever again be exploited by a for-profit enterprise, or to simply be where the greatest volume of fandom is happening.

I'm real tired of platform migrations, and I'm tired of big ideas that aren't deliberately crafted to minimize the damage of the inevitable worst-case-scenario byproducts of humans humaning at one another.
