#savelang8

Hi everyone.

It looks like Lang-8 is making some changes, and I am seriously worried about losing our language learning community. Maybe you already know this, or maybe you don't. But if Lang-8 dies, a lovely language learning community will be lost, along with all the posts that you may have written and their corrections.

I personally use Lang-8 almost everyday, and it has been an indispensable tool for my language learning. It is definitely the most useful language learning website I’ve ever used, and I would hate to see it disappear.

Lang-8 has suspended accounts, and there isn't a good alternative to Lang-8. Many of our community members have already complained to Lang-8. Check out Lang-8's Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/lang8/ especially Lang-8's post on March 21, 2017, where dozens of people have complained about Lang-8's suspended accounts, but Lang-8 doesn't care, and still doesn't care many months later. Some Lang-8 community members have set up a #savelang8 petition to save this community from dying. You can see the video they made about this, and the online petition here: http://www.polyjot.com/savelang8 If you care about Lang-8, and you have benefited from Lang-8, please sign the petition today, so that we can show the Lang-8 company that you care about the service and that we don't want it to die. It's completely free to sign it online, and it only takes 1 minute of your time. I signed it! They already have about 300 signatures, please help them reach 500 signatures. Every signature counts!! If you don’t want to sign for any reason, please reblog to help spread the word!
