Heh. I've been reading the link to igrick's journal. I can read a bit of Russian, and generally there's a lot of criticism. Part way down, however, is a *gem*. Some English speaking users have been complaining about the redesign, and that maybe the Russian beta testers liked it, but not everyone, so maybe there need to be options for commenting when a Russian speaks up and translates that so far as he knows there were no Russian bloggers in the test group, and that of the reviews, most were overwhelmingly negative. Then he quotes in translation (so excuse the language please):
"fucking faggots, turn it back to the initial state and never ever touch again!"
For himself he says:
What happens is not a conflict "russian-speaking bloggers against english-speaking bloggers". It is SUP (LJ administration), that is against all bloggers, regardles of their native language.
All of this picking at Russian has had an interesting effect on my brain. I had a short nap this afternoon because I'm still thoroughly exhausted, and in my dreams there were groups of people standing around in my house, all muttering quietly in Russian. :D

Edited to add: the rest of the conversation is quite entertaining also.
