The initial purpose was set out here: http://synecdochic.livejournal.com/226141.html

It looks like a serious attempt to build a better LJ, run mostly by people who have spent time working for LJ. It aims to solve technical issues, usability issues and business issues with LJ, and they are putting a lot of development effort into the open-source LJ code.

It has the feel of LJ in the early days. Whether any of that makes it compellingly better is a matter of opinion!

They have good tools for importing existing LJ content and for cross-posting, and they are putting a lot of effort into site interoperability.
