a bit of random LJ-related oddity...

[eregyrn]

Has anyone else noticed this?

I receive LJ comment notifications, of course, at a gmail account.

Up until approx. April 10th, I would get a notification that would read:

"Lynx (lynxreign) replied to your LiveJournal comment in which you said:"


From around then until approx. April 24th, I was apparently receiving (without noticing) notifications that read:

"raqs (raqs) replied to in which you said:"


And then, from April 25th onward, I have been receiving notifications that look like this:

"Lynx (lynxreign) replied to a [[sitenameshort]] comment in which you said:"


Isn't that odd? I started noticing (eventually) because the [[sitenameshort]] stands out, although granted it took me over a week to really say, "Ein minuten, bitte..."

Is this happening to other people? What on earth?

Yeah, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] made a post about that the other day, so it's happening in Yahoo mail too. We think the coding just got messed up somewhere, but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything else. *shrug* no idea, really. :)

Yeah, I noticed that too. ::shrugs::

Yeah I noticed that too. No idea what's going on.

you are not alone. I also get [[sitenameshort]]... although I didn't notice the other change. I wonder what the deal is?

[surreallis.livejournal.com]

Yup. Happening to me too.

[maxineofarc.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it seems to be some kind of global change in their coding. Beats me.

[suzvoy.livejournal.com]

Yup. Me too.

I do not know why, but it is not happening to me. I use yahoo mail, the new one not the classic.

Yep. I mentioned this in my own journal a day or two ago. No idea why - but nothing else seems "broken," so I'm ignoring it!
