For reasons mentioned above, I also don't think that this is going to affect much. In the end, the percentage of disgruntled LJ users is very small compared to the entire userbase.

That said, it would be interesting if people did start to band together to try and wean ourselves all off of LJ by posting less and less frequently overall, versus a one-day boycott, i.e. if there was some sort of support community (over here?) where we could all announce how proud we were that we didn't post for 5 days in a row, or whatever. I don't know if any of the "leavin lj" style comms are there for that sort of thing (I don't think it's real appropriate for here), but something like that in the long run would be far more effective.
Heh, I like the idea of a support community for weaning ourselves off LJ.

It is hard, I've been trying since last summer but I can't seem to fully give up LJ, it seems so quiet over here compared to there.
