About LJ alternatives

[winter]

GreatestJournal has just cut userpics down to 10.

InsaneJournal has been down for the past hour.

I think I'll be staying with our Russian overlords for the time being.

Hmmm, I haven't even researched any alternatives to lj, but so far SUP hasn't done anything nasty to me. But there is lots of paranoia going around about it in Russian lj sector, so I am slightly worried.

On the other hand, they've been in charge of the Russian LJ for a year. One would think bad things would start already?

Wee-eell... I heard some people grumping about privacy issues and about lj statistics (now you can see everybody who read your journal, day, time, and so on). I personally have been with SUP for a year and haven't seen anything bad, so I cannot judge.

Actually I wouldn't mind that that much. And they seem to actually care about the service and developing it, which is a good thing.

Yes, they certainly do. As far as I understand, some people just want SUP to stay out of their journals, period.
