Tumblr was like a zoo that kept all the animals in one cage
Im sorry
Ye
Yeah
Not anymore
how come this comment is a day earlier than the actual vid?
I feel like this one change is responsible for what Twitter is today
yeah, it's full of degenerates now...
NSFW artists are what keep Twitter alive today
Without a doubt.
@@Elemtree lol
The only four things on twitter anymore are: 1) politics 2) people pretending to understand politics 3) porn 4) Tumblr users who get offended when someone calls them a tumblr user.
We all hated Tumblr, we didn't realize what its existence was protecting us from... The dam has broken and now we are drowning...
The real winners of the Tumblr exodus was whoever was left on Tumblr afterward, they seem to be doing just fine.
It's like 4chan for blue hairs
>ban nsfw material
>almost everyone leaves
Kinda gives you an idea of the people on the platform
Fucking coomers run the internet, for better or worse. They weren't kidding with the whole "the internet is for porn" thing, considering like 30% of the entire traffic is pornography.
I remember being a teenager in the early 2010s and hearing that some of the hot art hoe girls at my school had posted nudes on there, only reason I signed up lmao
Yeah, the ancient form of what we have now
Hedonists with a eroded prefrontal cortex. Man... The prefrontal cortex is pretty important huh.
I like how people bullied a person close to suicide for drawing Rose Quartz slightly thinner than canon, but then at the end of the show Rose turned out to be the stick figure thin Pink Diamond
Those are the people who deserve to be doxxed. Not that one guy that thinks dream is not the reincarnation of jesus christ themselves.
So does that mean that Rose Quartz is a Fat Suit?

I feel like after Tumblr died, every other major social media platform (Twitter, Reddit, TikTok) became more like Tumblr to some extent, with Twitter being affected the most.
Wait, have I been using a dead site this whole time? It feels more lively than before. 😂
@@chiare5236 *shrugs* the only thing in pandoras box after all the horrors of the world left, was hope.
being on twitter since 2014, the site has completely changed. in 2014 people were showing others how to cook crack rocks and nobody blinked an eye. I didnt get suspended once for 4 years until the tumblr exodus began. now I'm on my 8th account or so, can't even call people retarded on twitter without getting your shit deleted. it's just not the same
@@nxxdle_ some harsh truth right there, i once called someone else an autist and got a 2 week suspension
@@lutherkingjustruis2755 i literally once called a kpop stan a bitch and she happened to have 14k+ followers so they all mass reported me into indefinite suspension
I feel like a ton of people would have better mental health if tumblr never banned porn and instead just investigated the CP
Yeah, how they handled the problem was just too sloppy, it would take longer, but then Tumblr would have more people and money
I'm convinced this has actually had a tangible negative impact on society. Tumblr was like the containment website for overly sensitive lunatics until all those lunatics moved to Twitter and got more of a voice in society
in a way yes, but at the same time no, they were already being given postions of power either because of the people they knew or because they caught the eye of crooked politicans who saw what they wanted for western society and saw it as a way to gain power, i mean the shit tumblr users wanted has certainly helped countries like china and groups like the wef control more of the west then before
Hey, for those of us still on tumblr it worked out great.
No not really at all, Twitter was always full of Toxic haters.

As someone who was a Newgrounds user from 1999 up until the Tumblr NSFW ban, I cannot emphasise how big of a disaster this banning was for smaller communities and websites like Newgrounds and Neocities. These people flooded into well-established but severely outnumbered communities and essentially forced us off of our own websites that we'd been using for decades. I absolutely despise Tumblrites and their culture.
Jeez, 1999???

This is why I’m against banning Twitter, I despise the people on that app but it serves as an effective containment chamber. The thing is, Twitter has more influence over people than Tumblr. Tumblr was used by teenagers while Twitter is used by celebrities, brands, etc; These people had to change for the new tumblr refugees so it just became the norm. If we stopped taking what people on Twitter say seriously, we’d have a less toxic environment. Seriously 4 years ago people on Tumblr complained about everything but we just ignored them, but they’re on Twitter now so I guess we have to care for them???? If you’re a sane person, delete Twitter. Leave it to the lunatics, by listening to them you’re putting yourself in a slippery slope situation, they’re not worth your time and terminally ill losers aren’t representative of real world minorities.
amen
If Only we were able to Retake Twitter and push these monsters Back to Hell... we need to strike back we are the natives... i Just feel like my Home was stolen from me
I wish I could delete it but there's just so many good artists I like there. My solution has been to use extensions to remove the trending tab and I also block certain keywords like drama.
Exactly. We used to make fun of these people for there idiotic demands for society. Now we conform to them. Why should give respect to people who hate us?
Twitter is where normies and the mentally unstable meet and the normies don't know how to handle it. Tumblr was the mental asylum of the internet
“The art they buried that day, laid the foundation of what we are now.”
-Twitter/Reddit, probably
Haha tasteful reference
“You will do nothing, because you can do nothing. Ban Wick will come for you.”
Expertly done. I applaud this
wait until somebody repost this on reddit
"I once saw tumbler kill three artists in a thread, with a ban. A fucking ban."
To be fair, Tumblr's method of banning porn was so bad that it tagged SFW art and photos of deserts as porn, which probably only made more people leave the site.
@Metaberry yeah most likely
I remember pictures of everything under the sun were being flagged by that algorithm.
i remember when pictures of cats and bananas where nsfw.
"Photos of deserts"
*SEND DUNES*
I had a picture of my dog flagged as nsfw once
The "Romanticizing Mental Illness Starterpack" reminded me of early Facebook, when people trying to act quirky or different shared cringy posts like, "I don't suffer from mental illness, I enjoy it."
Wasn't this also around when The Dark Knight came out?
That explains why Reddit has become more and more like Tumblr recently.
Tumblr is now like a decaying shopping mall past it's prime days. I even enjoy the calmness of it since many Toxic people left. You can enjoy art and niche things in peace
Tumblr now is basically a fortified mall in a zombie apocalypse. The people there are survivors simply living a peaceful life, sure there are break in of zombies from time to time but still it's relatively peaceful
Its like a post-warzone that doesnt care anymore
Now I can finally draw birds, fish, cheese and donuts and other things with thicc or muscly legs
agreeed.
So it's basically a ghost town?
Wait, a artist got bullied to near suicide for Steven Universe characters being drawn skinny?
I mean, it's Steven Universe. What can you even expect at this point?
And a cosplayer also got harassed because she was a white person displaying as Amethyst, a "black-coded" character (bitch, she's fucking *purple*)
turns out all the wholesome 100 chungus diversity fandoms are just as disturbingly toxic as the next, who knew.
I vaguely remember 4chan running a trolling operation where colored Stephen Universe characters were purposely drawn as Aryan looking with white skin and blond hair
It ended exactly as you're expecting. Spergery across the board. Many lulz were had that day.
@@SwoleSorcerer i remember hearing about that. eventually somebody posted a pic of themselves with a wig on the accound and said they where black & transgender and they where responsible for the art. then tumblr backpedalled so fucking hard it could have given the entire population of india whiplash.
Modern Tumblr is actually very chill now
The dam has broken but now the resevoir has been emptied and cleansed

@@Coristic121 Exactly 💯 👏
The butterfly effect of this single event is both hilarious and extremely extremely depressing.
Tumblr is like that one person in a zombie movie who doesn't tell the others whne they get bitten.
I want to say that they would just for the attention they never got as a child from their fictional molester three legged mother. But it still sounds right.
@@lucas1309 get bit by a zombie just to have people feel bad for you for a few hours
I doubt they'd be mobile enough to be a "survivor" for long, they'll just exploit the attention until they turn instead of offing themselves for the greater good
They would be proud, hell, even basing a sexuality on it. Zombosexuality.
I am the guy who Immediatley either chops of the respective limb where I was bitten (preferably on the toes) and then cauterizes the wound
I've heard that Tumblr is a way healthier place now that the weirdos moved on Twitter lol
It is tbh. There’s still the occasional crappy stuff but for part it’s just memes, shitposts, and aesthetic stuff.
Yeah, I've been using Tumblr more for this exact reason. It's kind of chill.
honestly if reddit becomes even more of a shitshow than it already is i might check out tumblr.
Tumblr is actually great now tbh. I don't use it regularly but its good when I use it.
it actually is. the website has gone back to a more cynical version of itself in the early days with much less social justice policing and anger.
The fact that the simple act of banning porn on Tumblr has had such a negative impact on the internet and society as a whole goes to show how bad Tumblr was to begin with.
It’s insane how tumblr basically destroyed the internet
How?

It's like that scene from Ghostbusters
The biggest problem that came from this is that Twitter is a lot more of a mainstream social media platform that what Tumblr was. A lot of big companies, politicians, and even Hollywood took to Twitter and these Tumblr displacements brought a lot of their "vocal minority" Unpopular opinions with them and managed to influence a lot policies that have been established in recent years. Why did we get a lot of unpopular box office bombs of films that were reboots of popular movies but featured All Female Casts, or a replacement of a beloved main character in favor of essentially a Mary Sue character? Simple because people on Twitter complained as passed off their unpopular opinions as Popular opinions. Why did Amazon suddenly pull certain products off their virtual shelves that came from Japan, claiming they were actually sexualized 15 year olds(when some are actually characters in their 20's), because Twitter. Why are Politicians trying to pass unpopular bills that go to extreme lengths like making a misgendering of someone who is nonbinary, a hate crime. Once again Twitter. These Toxic folks who proudly shared the #KillAllMen hashtag went to Twitter and tried to pass of this kind of stuff as if we all think Men are Trash when in reality the vast majority of women have no such opinions.
r/bigchungus being banned is possibly one of the most horrific losses that has happened in humanity’s history.

Tik Tok got big around 2018 too. (for those of you that don’t know what “Tik Tok” is, it’s a popular social media app that exploded during the 2020 quarantine and similar to tumblr has also received tons of backlash over the aggressive s/xualization of underage kids… except instead of art it’s real people who have no idea of the danger they’re exposed to)
Can we just give child pornographers the death penalty already? What value do these slugs provide to society or any person they know that can possibly make up for the number of lives they ruin? Murder is enough (in some places) but traumatizing a child into suicide isn't?
Every day I feel more and more that the internet was a mistake.

Tumblr used to be the best for art, both sfw and nsfw. I would just go on there, ignore all the bs drama, look at some art, and be on my my merry way. That's why the exodus to twitter was so annoying. Tumblr is much more convenient when it comes to looking at art, but on Twitter it can be excruciating because many artists I like (most just for the art) also just happen to tweet like 8 hot takes a day and scrolling through all that to get to any art is a special kind of torture.
my finger nearly breaking scrolling through all of the gacha screenies like:
Twatter is political vomit and worthless opinions non stop now.
looking at art on twitter is hell. i don't need to see every single post the artist replied to with a reaction gif, and i don't care about the 50 gofundme's for their cousin's cat's funeral they retweeted within the last hour. i just want to see fat tits ffs

My favorite part of Tumblr was making my way onto the Bionicle scene and seeing no MOCs, lore discussions, or OC drawings. Just everyone saying “uhhhh Gali’s bi and thats canon 🥴” and also sex
It seems today that all you see, is sex, gay sex, and ships on TV
Tumblr's userbase is basically "I'm a good person! I'm donating to this cause!" But they refuse to look at the charity supporting a deathray pointed at the earth.
No no, they're doing everyone a favor by doing that. We won't have to suffer them anymore once its goal is reached.
Even back then we would've funded that and have it surpass its goal just for the meme.
@@expiredgatorade1999 They basically called out the moral compass of a sizable chunk of tumblr's userbase using made up charities as an analogy.
Which it was kinda of right because though many of use would ignore a charity to destroy the earth in favor of better causes, there'd be so many more crowdfunding the hell out of the deathbeam one just for laughs. Just throwing money at it going "go ahead, we dare you, you think that scares us? Joke's on you, we're into that stuff."

I love the visuals that you put alongside your commentary
As a current tumblr user, this video is unfortunately Very Accurate. Twitter today looks nearly exactly like Tumblr 3-6 years ago, and has left Tumblr- not dead, but somehow one of the chillest places left? Occasionally you see a discourse monstrosity pass by your dash before never hearing about it again. Sometimes people come from twitter to rain hate on "problematic" tumblr users who had a post screenshotted and posted on twitter. Tumblr hasn't been the same since the ban no, but the mass exodus wasn't as big a catastrophe as it looked from the outside. Everyone said they would leave tumblr, and then the next day they just kept on posting.
Also the porn bots are still here. They haven't gone away, they are still here. It is regular ritual to go through your followers to block n report porn bots. More keep coming. They do not know their time is over, poor things.
The worst part of the Exodus was the Explosion of Critical Roll and D&D in popularity at the time. My poor, poor /tg/...
for real...
i personally witnessed a fairly big artist getting rained on with hate like in 2019 for being "transphobic" for using the word "femboy" in one of their comics.
and i encountered a joke page full of "PC jokes", where literally all of the comments unironically believed that mansplaining was a thing
i encountered a lot of nasty people who would call you homophobic and claim that you hate them because you didn't like their ship.
and a hivemind of people that thought their gay ship was supposed to be canon and called the writers of the show their ship was in "idiotic" for not expanding on the romance the characters were supposed to have (even though those characters were friends in the show)
and then there were these people that called ATLA "racist" for making the dark-skinned sand benders enemies (ignoring that half of the main cast are dark-skinned themselves)

@@georgiykireev9678 eh, there’s really no moderating drawings, because then we would backpedal into what exactly is acceptable in terms of art, but yeah it can def be gross.
My rule of thumb goes as far as two things;
Is the art based on real people?
Is the artist in question committing similar acts or showing actual intentions with said art?
If any of those questions is answered positively, then there’s a problem with it, because inherently the mentally deranged aren’t because of the art in it of itself; they were already sick before that.
You just made a light bulb go off in my head. Now it all makes sense. The banning of some of my favorite subreddits and turning Reddit into NeoTumblr, it was the Tumblr immigration that changed the nature of the site. I had never thought about that before but it makes so much sense
The toxicity, The stupidity, the bullying, the blatant antisemitism, the rise of cancel culture, the hypersexulization of children's content, the huge influx of creeps, groomers, pedos, and emotionally stunted crybaby's.
All took over our favorite platforms
because of this ban.
Tumblr died, and some funky mushrooms grew on the carcass.
Not funky, toxic mushrooms that for some reason spread.
I believe they removed porn because of Apple's anti-porn rule on their appstore. Apple complained to Tumblr and threatened them with removing their app. Of course Twitter and Reddit are still allowed to be on the app store and they allow porn too but that's a topic for another day.
Why only Tumblr tho? I mean sure, because of CP. But don't pretend Reddit and Twitter doesn't have pedos before the NSFW ban. Apple based.
prolly because losing reddit and twitter would hurt apple significantly more compared to losing tumblr
I think it also had something to do with the rampant cp problem they were having and the bottomless pit of porn bots that still find my account every day since 2014
@@--.._ because the CP was horrifically rampant and more and more children where being abused snd preyed on by pedos every day
Oh dear the tumbler purge....order 66 on all porn artist.
To those who weren't there at the time, the actual reason why Tumblr banned NSFWs was because Apple threatened to remove Tumblr from their appstore for lack of moderation.
Also, Tumblr is not going to recover form this because other than the """culture""" they had, there's nothing good to it. The layout is not easy to follow and their archive system is dogshit. Finding posts from a long time ago takes forever because you cannot just search them up. You have to pull up the poster's page and slowly scroll all the way down through all the posts they ever made until you find the one.
EDIT: Yes, yes, I know the few who remained on Tumblr are keeping it alive, but it will never be the powerhouse it used to be. Even if it is currently one of the least toxic blogging websites out there.
Also, Apple didn't 'threaten to remove' Tumblr from the app store, Apple actually did remove Tumblr from the appstore and banning NSFW was a damage control maneuver. I got it wrong the first time. My bad.
Apple didnt threatened to remove the app, THEY REMOVED THE APP! But they said that they would bring it back ONLY if they got rid of the child porn, so Tumblr went for the nuclear option and we all know the rest.
Reminds me of Twitter with the scrolling, maybe because I never really use it but I cannot find ANYTHING on that thing unless I favorite it but I can't even search up specific users even if I type their username! I have to search it using Google, like what the hell is that?!
There is an archive system on tumblr. Blog name .tumblr .com/archive
You can search by month. It’s only on desktop, but it has been there since at least 2013. Tags can be used appropriately, or used to converse without bogging down the original post. To me, it makes much more sense than Twitter or Instagram, but to each their own I suppose
Their layout is a hell of a lot easier to follow than Pinterest and it's doing fine.
but the cp thing was also real
Honestly, I actually like tumblr more now. Its super chill nowadays after all the toxic people there moved to twitter and the younger users grew up and matured.
I never expected to see detnox artwork on a thumbnail, also nice video.
I'm still unreasonable pissed that most artists went to twitter and Instagram... you know, those platforms TERRIBLE for sharing art, which use image formats that are not even real, where the basic user hates even mildly adult or daring content. And where people get cancelled for the slightest offenses. Instagram does not even let you upload images at a decent quality. Yet almost all artist fled to those sites. It's like abandoning the Nevada desert and moving into the abandoned Chernobyl reactor to escape radiation poisoning.

@Dr. Hallow
It makes me so mad having to scroll through someone’s entire Twitter just to find one particular piece of fan art of theirs.
I’m still praying some new site takes the place of tumblr because Twitter was already crap, but it wasn’t the hellscape it is now until Tumblr died.
I can’t get anywhere no matter what I produce and my social media accounts consist of instagram aND TWITTER there almost no point in posting anymore
Instagram has been taking down quite a lot of artists' accounts over the stupidest things lately. I hate being an artist in this day and age on how awful the platforms are getting
Twitter isn't that bad, I got recognized on there
In an alternate universe, Tumblr wasn’t stupid enough to ban NSFW content for more advertising & using overkill on CP, getting better moderation instead, and the world wouldn’t be so ass backwards.
But still one thing didn't change...... GREED

Then Elon Musk bought Twitter and people ran back to Tumblr. And soon after that, there was the Reddit blackout and even more people jumped back to Tumblr.
Now Tumblr just needs to unban porn, and the internet can find balance once more (even though some artists found workarounds hours after the ban…).
If it all came full circle in the end
The Reddit blackout lasted 2 days, but Twitter is just completely dead and is now run by right wing bots (which is somehow still better than cancel culture bs)
@@user-se6kk2wi6xIt has both, now it’s just both extremes
Ya know… My experience with Twitter between 2015 and 2019 was actually pretty pleasant. Then in early 2020 my experience took a massive nosedive after someone falsely accused me of “Being a pedophile” just so that they can get some brownie points for canceling me. Ever since my experience with Twitter was a mix of “Pretty good” and “Miserable”. I’ve spent the last 2 years absolutely stumped to what caused my Twitter experience to be so terrible… But this actually explains it pretty well. Thank you.
What happened to the person who accused you of being a pedophile?
That Steven Universe situation was a taste of what would become modern cancel culture. If only we knew how much worse it would get from there...
Oh God, I remembered when that happened. I honestly thought people would learn from it how naive I was.
Technically the first taste of cancel culture was the Dixie Chicks
@@kittykittybangbang9367 No it was from a indian tv show back in 2010 where a guy always shouted cancel . I still remember that

Tumblr trying to deal with the CP by nuking all nsfw material is like setting your house on fire just to deal with a few cockroaches.
To be fair, it was more than a few.
In that it was 100% justified.
@@Squeaky245
However many, all "setting the house on fire" did was disperse the roaches.
Now they're everywhere and (though thankfully, they don't multiple like actual roaches) they're much harder to uproot
nsfw is all over the internet. It's not like anyone was really losing anything. A lot of those artists still have DA accounts and their own websites they upload to regularly. Like the onlyfans controversy, it's just a bunch of angry manchildren who got mad a company didn't do what they wanted and cater endlessly to them.
It’s because Apple removed the Tumblr app from the App Store for containing 18+ content. In order to get the app back on the store, they had to ban all 18+ content.

The funny thing is that tumblr is still alive? We're still fuckin here, chillling. In fact, after the whole shitshow with twitter turning into Elon's personally chewtoy and Reddit screwing over moderators, a lot of people fled TO tumblr.
The thing about tumblr is that you only see posts from people you *choose* to follow, unless you go out of your way to seek other posts. If you see people being toxic, it's SO easy to just cut them out of your life and move on. Just unfollow them or block them, or usually just ignore them. If you curate your experience well, it's pretty nice.
It's really surreal to see people talk about how tumblr is dead when I keep seeing Brand New Tumblr Memes being shared on other platforms. Like, I've been on the site through at least 2 events that were supposed to be the "Death of Tumblr"
GGs
It's amazing how we've gotten to the point where giving everyone a platform to speak on can be considered a legitimate social issue and a determent to the future of the human race.
Enemies of free speech deserve to be silenced themselves so they understand what they are inflicting on others.

@@very7962 I agree, such liberal notions were born of decadence.
To everyone who are pissed about the whole Steven Universe thing don't worry 4chan taught them a lesson.
Basically after the whole harassment of the artist happened 4chan caught wind of it. They were debating on whether or not to actually get involved. Some people wanted to leave it be while other wanted to take advantage of the situation. After all Tumblr and 4chan were long time enemies of each other so it'd be a good idea to let the easily offensive bully the easily offended so they all decided to begin the trolling. Even though they all decided to troll the ever loving shit out of Tumblr they need someone to do the job. After hours of discussing one brave anon came forward and decided to be the martyr for this mighty cause.
The plan was simple: Create an account called "Steven Universe edits", come off as a Steven Universe fan account and attract the attention of SU fans, then start white washing every non white character and paint their hair blonde and their eyes blue, now let the feast begin.
The beasts went rabid as the account were soiling their beloved characters. The trolling went on for days and days as the sanity of the SU fans were rapidly plummeting. The account even went as far to edit Rebecca Sugar (the creator of Steven Universe) with blonde hair and even whiter skin. They even edited Onion as a black character but the twist was that he breaks into houses and steals things. Even the husband of Rebecca Sugar got involved but instead of hating on the account he was simply disappointed at how SU fans were so easily falling for the bait.
Then the rapture came. The day that would forever live on in infamy. The account did a face reveal and the identity of the user was finally revealed. It wasn't a straight white man, it was trans black woman! The SU fans back pedalled and they back pedalled hard. They switched from bloodthirsty and enraged to sorrowful and looking for forgiveness. Even though the account has long since went silent it's legacy still lives on.

I'm new at this part of the internet, its been 2 years since I started working only from home and as I live alone I often feel very lonely ... so I started listening to youtube videos like these and... OMG... I'm so mindblowed with all this! I was never a internet hardcore user, I only used it to talk to my family and friends in the most superficial way... I mean I knew this kinds of things could be happening but not at this level!!! thanks for contributing to the video by adding this part of the story, it's really awesome and scary!
The internet was so much better when there were no rules, then someone decided to let a bunch of silly billies have a say over what you could and couldn't do
Just discovered this channel and subbed! This explains so much. I joined reddit in 2019 and one of the first subs I joined was the r/Fantasy community because I was also getting into fantasy novels and wanted recommendations. I loved that sub and got so much useful book info. Then in 2020, I was banned from it. Why? Suddenly there were posts about "social justice" stuff and it confused me because it really contributed nothing to fantasy discourse. I had an argument with another member about how N.K Jemisin used divisive identity politics that turned people of her books and I was called a white supremacist despite me being black. Next incident was when I posted about how the HBO Lovecraft country was wasting the potential of using H.P Lovecraft's lore by only focusing on racism and identity politics when it should be about otherworldly horror. One commenter just posted that I was a member of r/conservative and that made me racist. I just told her to post whatever she wants that I don't care. Afterwards, my post was deleted and I was banned from the subreddit.
As I recall, Tumblr actually banned NSFW content because Apple told them they wouldn't be allowed on their app store if they allowed it to exist on their platform.
That, and because Tumblr didn't moderate enough because of the raging NSFW (Illegal contents or otherwise) Bots bloating up the sites and sending spams to users.
And that was the flammable object that the spark needed to make tumbr end like this and affecting other social media in the process...
@@citricusrunad9114 say what you will, but it just made the worst if the worst leave.
It wasn't the NSFW stuff period, it was the Pedo accounts that were running rampant back then I think.
It’s because Apple reported that they found child p, and so Tumblr decided to drop a content nook.

Ironically enough, I still have issues with pornbots. Over the last month or so I've gotten no less than about half a dozen of them.
I get one nearly every day via text. I block and report them every time, and recently they've become a lot less common. Now I see them once a week or so.
SAMEEEE
I see them in comment sections on popular RUclipsrs videos
the sugar daddy bots lol
I used Tumblr extremely infrequently from like 2012 to '19, and I remember happening to log in right around the time the NSFW ban was announced. It was an absolute meltdown site-wide.
Tumblr had a lot of issues, but the less toxic parts of the site definitely had their appeal, and I've never seen anywhere that quite replicated it. The customization of individual blogs was actually insane and almost limitless. The UI was clunky but it fit the character of the site.
i think the main issue is how you cant search up specific posts. there are certain accounts that make the site worth it, like gaud and pukicho, but other than that, its kinda just the demo of twitter
A guy named “ foam foot crew”made a video detailing how tumblr influenced Reddit and twitter so much I recommend you check it out it’s very informative.
I miss my tumblr blog I was one of those aesthetic bloggers, I left cause I couldn’t handle to user base anymore and around that time, and maybe I thought I was too old for it too.
I tried coming back at 2019 not much is there last time I’ve looked into it.
After the Reddit blackout, people were worrying the same thing would happen to Reddit, where Redditors would just move to Twitter to make it worse, but to be honest, Twitter could be sort of like a quarantined website where these people thrive, and the normal, non incels could use different social media sites.
This video started strong and ended beautifully, well done
