I'm a DG transplant, too. I signed up here before, but hadn't navigated thru all of it. I stuck with DG at the time mainly because some sweet person paid for my subscription after I allowed it to expire as I was tired of all the drama. But since I found so many friends on the quilt forums there, I just bookmarked it and used it as my Go To for the quilt/sew projects.
I recognize many here from DG, and there are probably some I haven't found yet, but already the atmosphere is so much more 'breathable', if that makes sense. I find myself not being able to ditch DG completely, as there are a few over there that want to stay, which is fine. I can jump back and forth to visit, although I would prefer to just stay on one side of the fence. We have lost some wonderful folks over the years, and to have to do this all over again is sad. Hopefully, in time we can find each other again and get back to the things we like to do best!
