Hello again, Dreamwidth

[sparr]

As a new wave of migration away from Facebook begins, I am looking at old and new platforms to maybe use again. I spent a lot of years having a lot of great interactions with friends on LiveJournal, but as people left due to the Russian connection I never really saw much of them here or elsewhere.

Should I be trying to get people to come to DW? Are there apps or tools that make it easier to use / better / more modern in terms of interface?

Are there other social network / blog / discussion platforms I should be considering?
