Newcomers to Dreamwidth

Because it's nice to let people know that we appreciate them.

In the spirit of love memes, this meme is a place to thank someone who's created something you love, or done something kind that you still remember after all this time, or who has made your fandom life (or your life in general!) better in some way.

snowflake_challenge is hosting its Friending Meme today. This is one of the best opportunities of the year to make new friends on Dreamwidth. Use the template in that post to comment with your response.

You can also copy it onto your own blog, as I've done here. This provides a place for longer conversations if desired, so they don't clog up the main challenge, which typically runs hundreds of comments anyhow.

crazy_yet_fun has a Friending Meme going.  It's mainly about blogging and media.

icons is hosting a Friending Meme.

Dreamwidth is running its December points event.

The standard explanation: For the entire month of December, all orders made in the Shop of points and paid time, either for you or as a gift for a friend, will have 10% of your completed cart total sent to you in points when you finish the transaction. For instance, if you buy an order of 12 months of paid time for $35 (350 points), you'll get 35 points when the order is complete, to use on a future purchase.


If you're gift-shopping for anyone on Dreamwidth, or you wish to support a favorite community here, points or paid time offer a great way to do that. Now is also a good time to buy them for yourself. Support the platform that keeps us connected here.

This post is especially for those folks coming to Dreamwidth from Bluesky, who may wish to reconnect with other people they know from that venue.

Bluesky is currently facing a bunch of different issues. This is causing many users to leave the platform and seek a new one, some of whom are coming to Dreamwidth. Use the "Introduction / Friending Meme" to say hello and meet new people here.

If you haven't quit Bluesky yet but plan to, then it's a good idea to make a farewell post on Bluesky NOW while you still can. Tell people where else to find you online, whether your account is moving or closing, and any other important details.

Use this post to tell folks that you are on Dreamwidth, what your Bluesky account was, and who you're looking for here that you knew back there. You can use the template in a comment below, on your blog, or anywhere else you find it useful. This one is shorter than the more detailed "Introduction / Friending Meme" is.
