I accidentally clicked on "Update Date" on one of my older posting.
How do I revert that posting date to the original "Posted Date"?

Dreamwidth email notifications?
Oct. 22nd, 2018 10:42 pmDreamwidth stopped sending me email notifications.
Last notification Dreamwidth sent me 2 weeks ago -- October 8 2018.
I even checked my email spam folder -- nothing from Dreamwidth.
Are you receiving email notifications from Dreamwidth?
Update: The reason for missing email notifications was "Catch-all email" bug in G Suite.

Dreamwidth team
Apr. 14th, 2017 06:36 pmDenise posted a nice summary of a team behind DreamWidth in an email newsletter.
Here's a piece that explains why my DreamWidth account was suspended:
---------
http://dw-news.dreamwidth.org/38065.html
* We get rid of accounts that were just created for spam purposes, whether that's "leaving spam comments" (if you get one, delete it and check the "mark this comment as spam" checkbox; our anti-spam team will handle it from there!) or "posting links to other sites in order to boost those sites' search engine rankings". (If you see what you think is one or more of those, open a support request in the Anti-Spam category with a link to the journal(s), and our anti-spam team will take a look.) It's okay to use DW to host the blog for your small business where you tell your customers what you've been up to lately, for instance, but it's not okay if your account exists only to post those bite-sized, auto-generated things stuffed with keywords and links that exist only for gaming search engines. There's obviously some human judgement involved here, and occasionally we mistakenly suspend an account that wasn't a spambot or a SEO-bot (and then we apologize and fix it!), but most spam accounts are very much a case of "you know it when you see it".

Moving to dreamwidth
Dec. 25th, 2016 11:36 amI'm moving my LJ to https://dennisgorelik.dreamwidth.org/
How to move:
1) Create new dreamwidth account:
https://www.dreamwidth.org/create
2) Import old livejournal account:
https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/importer
3) Setup cross-posting to LJ:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/settings/?cat=othersites
Thanks to k0m4atka
Why move:
1) Livejournal decided to move their servers from California to Moscow.
That means Russian authorities can do whatever they want with my data whenever they want.
2) LiveJournal technical team seems to be getting worse: more downtimes.
That is probably caused by decline in team morale (pressured by Russian government to move under Russian control).
