Are you asking why I use Semagic, or why I use a client at all ?
I use Semagic because it was the first one I tried, and it seems to do everything I want.
I use a client because it saves drafts and is generally less fragile than typing into a browser window when your laptop is liable to spontaneously shutdown at any moment. I often type entries over a few days. It also enables me to prepare a post, and set it to post at some time in the future - which was useful when I used to post BAYD at 3pm, and work banned access to LJ.
Hmm... that future posting feature must use a server somewhere. Most odd.
They actually fixed the post-losing feature of LJ. It saves drafts periodically now. That said, there's no real reason not to use a client, I just never saw the point.
