I clicked "I plan to have a Dreamwidth journal for commenting/reading, but LJ will still be my main blogging site." More accurately, I'll crosspost every LJ post to Dreamwidth but LJ will remain my main blogging platform until my main fandom moves over to Dreamwidth; then of course I'll do the lemming thing.
I'm very comfortable on LJ, too, and not crazy about moving. But it sounds like Dreamwidth will come with nifty features, and, more importantly, a good import tool. But what really compels me to make the switch is LJs past behavior towards fandom. The scans_daily affair showed once again that the LJ PTB will throw a fandom journal/comm to the wolves without hesitation as soon as a copyright holder says "BOOO!"... be it justified or not. That they aren't even willing to stop and listen to a possible fair use defense is a huge turnoff... every one of us is wide open to accusations of copyright infringement.
