Ditto. BUT...... if reblogs will keep tumblr folks on DW (which = more paying users, more vibrant community etc) then I'd be happy with a compromise of having a 'do not reblog' option- i think this option should, just like our journal settings of being public or access-list only etc, should be something we can set for the journal as a whole, or change for specific posts. This way, people like you and me can set our journal as a whole to non-rebloggable and not have to worry about the issue every time we post something. OTOH, if we have a really really important post that we WANT the masses to see and pass around in anyway easiest / most familiar to them, then we could make that one single post re-bloggable.
Right now, due to fanlore's (and other people's) use of archive.is and other archives that think they are above international laws and hide behind the places neonazi and incel groups do (eg cloudflare), I've set my journal to access list only, with only a few PA posts made public. I was taken aback to be congratulated for taking control of 'my space', because it ws that expectation of privacy on a platofrm like LJ back in the day, when we made many posts public (how else could meta-news roundup lists exist - I learned so much and met so many new people, and miss that greatly. (Another feature I'd like on DW is the ability to have posts be "public" but ONLY to logged in users after they do a quick CAPTCHA (If you want to know more, you can read the thread here: https://dw-news.dreamwidth.org/38929.html?thread=5933329#cmt5933329 )
