So does the internet in general. It's still poor form to block entire platforms without warning.

#15I suspect that DW has some interesting stuff.
At first blush, it looks like LiveJournal 2.0. There's probably some pretty...interesting stuff, but it's not aggregated and promoted, like FB. It looks like each account is pretty insular.

#161. Is Facebook also blocking creation of new posts with links to Dreamwidth? 2. Are other Facebook users with posts linking to Dreamwidth also experiencing this deletion of posts? Edit: Yes and Yes.
Yes, facebook is blocking the creation of new posts with links to Dreamwidth. Or at least, they did so when I attempted to create a post containing a link to the post under discussion here about 5 minutes ago. I am located in Austria if that makes any difference.

#17@AndrewDucker: I’m curious to know why you picked the “eye in the pyramid” as the icon of your post, which is also known as the symbol of the Illuminati.

#18Interesting place, never heard of it before. > Dreamwidth Studios is an Open Source social networking, content management, and personal publishing platform.

Yeah, it's an actually good blogging site. Main thing it has against it is the lack of an app. (And that Facebook has just blocked it)
The lack of an app is something for it. Literally every app of some website has the worse experience. Even worse the website will keep begging you to install their shitty app.

#19I was not aware that Facebook blocked users from posting links to specific domains. Is the list made public anywhere?

#20If you use FB's url debugger it gives the message:
"We can't review this website because the content doesn't meet our Community Standards. If you think this is a mistake, please let us know"
So an unhelpful; start but a start to understanding what may have happened.

My guess is that FB should have blocked a sub-domain but instead blocked a whole domain because of a small set os users.
