I'm growing tired of LJ

From what I've been reading on [livejournal.com profile] metafandom, their latest move is going around and marking slash/femslash comms as explicit.

Sorry LJ, but just because a story (or image) involves people of the same sex, it doesn't automatically mean it's explicit.

I'm not leaving LJ since there's too many people/comms, but I'm going to be cross-posting from DW since they have a really simple feature of being able to cross-post to your LJ with just a click. On DW, I'm [personal profile] rekall, so if anyone has a DW account and want to follow me there, go ahead.

I don't mind it when sites have to remove content because their sponsors are getting mad or for whatever reason. It happened with both Onemanga and Mangafox, but in those cases it wasn't just yaoi that was being targeted, it was all manga that dealt with a mature subject.

Right now with LJ though they seem to be specifically flagging comms with the word 'slash' in the title. Besides FFR (which was reported due to a wanky grudge), I haven't seen a non-slash comm get flagged without warning even though there are plenty of comms that it could happen too.
