Yeah I stopped using it around 2010 and that was not long after it became mostly Russian. I can't read Russian so I had no idea what any of those accounts were posting about and I didn't bother trying to translate the because it was like 2011 and translation online wasn't that good back then.
I've never listened to Reply All. I assume its a podcast.
Anyway, I'm in the US and I don't stick my head into Russian politics because I don't think its my place to do so. It doesn't concern me and I feel like its none of my business and I feel like the US really shouldn't go sticking their nose in other countries business but of course our government is full of fucking nosey idiots. Always has been and seems to me our history is full of us sticking our nose where it doesn't belong. I'm not a fan.
So if you have some kind of moral grudge against whatever those people are posting - I can't agree or disagree. It's good you stand up for what you believe however.
It's still just a platform though and there is nothing wrong with you and your friends going there, starting your own community so you can all keep and touch and talk to each other. No one says you have to interact with the Russians there.
It is a podcast and what they found out about Russian Livejournal is INSANE.
You know, I think I remember hearing something about that in passing. Might be a cool deep dive for later.
