While I respect your feelings, Imzy never lacked notifications. They slowly got more options, but I was getting comment notifications and post notifications almost right away. That said, I definitely get it not being your cuppa. I'm scrambling to relocate my favorite comms, particularly conlang, but there were really just the conlang and worldbuilding comms I'm feeling at a total loss with. I'll miss Imzy though. For me, it was a Tumblr alternative rather than a journal alternative.
