Thank you for this post! I do have reasons for staying on LJ but I am going to be more involved here on DW. I thought of stopping fic posting on either platform but decided I didn't want to put all my eggs in one basket at AO3. Having DW as a back-up for fic sounded like a good idea to me. :)
I hope more people come to Dreamwidth. Yeah, giving up my icons will be awful when that time comes (I have extra userpic packages right now on LJ) and even 100 is going to seem like a paring-down, and the backgrounds here at DW are really not as varied or as pretty as on LJ, but I feel I must prepare for what may happen. Much less stressful to already have the hard work done if something happens!
Sometimes it seems like life on the computer is a constant 'do-over'. :)
