Did tumblr lose popularity? You never hear people using it anymore. Seems like they all hopped to instagram. Pic unrelated but came up in google when i typed tumblr.

I want to say Tumblr has slowly been losing popularity through the years because of the bad reputation it's earned, it's been getting worse lately due to the shit tumblr has been pulling lately with deleting blogs and what not. These days a lot of tumblr users I know have hopped onto Instagram and twitter

No. 333322

I think the batshit fandoms, gender fuckery and rampant scamming/sex work ruined tumblr. The good parts of tumblr just didn't have enough juice to combat the worst of it. I jumped ship early back when bucket-spitting Homestucks molesting teens at cons were the topic of the week.

I miss when it was bigger, especially since I love the personalization features that just aren't available on insta or twit. I like my page looking cute!
Also, has anyone else recently had trouble viewing mature content there now? Even with safe search off in settings (the lock icon has disappeared for me), nothing comes up for "femdom" or even "butt" lol. Is that just part of their great nsfw purge or am I missing a new feature? Or have they just fucked up again?

No. 333332

i used to be very active on tumblr since 2010. kinda still am, i just have a queue going, but i now spend the majority of my time on twitter, instagram, and gossip forums.
they recently took tumblr off all app stores, not sure if they put it back up, but that's probably a bigger reason now.

I joined Tumblr in 2010 also (around there) Here lately it just isn't the same and since they've been deleting blogs a lot of people I followed have moved to other places and post less and less. I don't even check Tumblr as often as I used to either. I just usually upload some art and leave.

I will say it's a good place to make sort of a mini portfolio for art since it's got a lot of customization, but no doubt the reputation has ruined that in a way. It kind of annoys me a lot of artists I followed moved to Twitter because honestly a lot of art Twitter's just post irrelevant memes on their timelines and I just wanna see their art,,, There are ways to recover deleted blogs apparently,, but I'm not sure if they're letting porn accounts get their accounts back.

Also past couple of years the site has been loading awkwardly like if I scroll long enough on mobile eventually it just,, stops loading?? (Although mobile has always kind of had this issue with loading properly but now even if I access it on my computer it's the same way)

The only thing saving Tumblr right now are fandom and sex shit. I used to go on there daily from 2011-2014 and it was awesome, had more people and didn’t have a bad reputation. Lots of people have gone to instagram now.

Same! I used to love customizing my blog and would change theems until I found a design I was pleased with. I would even track the redux edit tag when that became the hot thing just so I would know whenever any new themes were released.

While I still have my blog, I don't find customizing themes as much fun anymore. Not sure if I'm the only one having this problem, but the theme editor is so glitchy for me. It's slow, colors wont show sometimes, etc.

I really miss old Tumblr, it felt like just overnight everyone I was following became SJWs. The first time I felt uncomfortable being on there was when that thing where the first Monday of a month (or whatever) black people would post selfies as some kind of appreciation day. But then people began shaming those who didn't reblog them, even if your blog didn't usually contain other people's selfies. I felt peer-pressured into reblogging just so I wouldn't seem racist.

No. 333636

God I used to LOVE tumblr. I just got so fed up with all the ridiculous politics. I even created a new tumblr at some point to get a fresh start but somehow that crap still found it's way into my dash. And I was very tired that there was SO much porn. I like to browse animal stuff, pet training posts etc. but I just got furry porn and pet play posts as results

No. 333638

Joined tumblr in 2011, I think it's been decreasing in popularity since around 2016. Now that it's overrun with bots and sex crap, it's pretty shitty. Though mass deleting everything nsfw is one way to get rid of the pornbot problem, it'll alienate users who are there for nsfw fandom stuff and result in them leaving, like what happened with livejournal. That's my guess at least. The problem is that there isn't a good alternative to tumblr yet so it'll probably hang on for a little while longer.

Instagram is good for art and cosplay stuff and twitter is good for art and memes and fandom interaction, but there isn't really a platform that combines the two and has it as customizable and personal as tumblr or livejournal. Once a better alternative shows up, I think people will flee tumblr en masse.

No. 333794

RIP tumblr. Adult content is more than half of your content and you wont survive without it. I understand the CP shit and ddlg content is hard to remove fully, but that kinda says more about you that instead of hiring people to deal with that issue specifically, you think banning even nudity is going to work. Really dumb.

On one hand I'm happy all those creepy ddlg, dom, and misogyny kink blogs will be wiped out but on the other I'm sad because now I have no where to get porn without giving scummy porn sites ad revenue besides like duckduckgo images. Where are all the refugee sex perverts going to go? Plebbit?

No. 333873

This decision will absolutely kill the website, especially considering a majority of its userbase produces nsfw content and are only there for said content.

I hardly involve myself in the community and have only been using tumblr as an archive of sorts, but it’s still clear that the site is pretty much dead. This made me consider moving to Instagram instead, but the switch between platforms is so confusing? Twitter has retweets while tumblr has reblogs, what does Instagram offer that makes it so popular among artists?

No. 333914

>>333634
Same, iirc this day was called blackout, it was so cringey because some people accused each other of being racist for not reblogging photos of people they didn't even know or for posting selfies while being albino or mixed. At that time there was also that stupid blog called your fave is problematic and it was taken very seriously by almost everyone I followed. There were also a lot more callout posts on my dash for stupid reasons as well as serious matters like famous bloggers scamming their followers. I used to be on tumblr everyday and post shit about fandom with my mutuals but they also turned into SJW all of a sudden and were weirded out that I wasn't becoming a SJW at the same rate as them because I'm the opposite of a healthy rich straight white male.

I remember moving to twitter somewhere in 2014 because the normal people I used to follow on tumblr went migrated there but the crazy ones decided to migrate there as well soon after. And it got worse because of the russian porn bots. I'm salty that tumblr added useful features like blacklisting tags once the whole website lost its appeal. Personally I think the exact moment when it stopped being interesting was once Yahoo bought Tumblr. At the time I thought were exaggerating when they said the website was fucked but they were absolutely right.

>>333875
>>333881
At some point the tags lesbian and gay were classified as nsfw because the tumblr staff was trying to clean the tags a bit since it was full of porn. That was soon after Yahoo bought tumblr and users were really pissed so if they do something like that I have a feeling a lot of people are going to definitely leave or boycott tumblr.

I wouldnt say Im mad, but I also am not pro censorship for things that arent illegal. Its a slippery slope. As some have mentioned, anything even alluding to same sex relationships or sex education is now up for banning. And whos to say they wont ban discourse or political discussion or anything else that can be slightly controversial soon? I get that it started out as only pics of uWu flowers and waterfalls, but it evolved into a place where people could discuss things and Im pretty sure thats what the majority of the site is used for. Porn, political and cultural discussion, art and self promotion. So they're just killing their core audience.

Oh man, reading all this makes me so nostalgic for some reason. I've started visiting tumblr around 2009, joined shortly after in 2010 and god knows how many good jiggles I had, get to know people around the world, who I actually managed to meet at some point and just enjoy and find interesting content.

I always felt that the nsfw content has been part of this site since forever. It's been always kind of ~edgy~ and being exposed to the most weirdest things idk I still habe my account but I stopped using it for the most part in 2015 because the passive-aggressive political shit, which made it for me personally impossible to use it without seeing x-amount of sjw posts on my dash without even actively asking for it.

I'm just scared where all the sjw will flee now. Twitter is okey, if you know how to avoid it but I feel it will getting worse by time.

? That post was made after the reveal of the new policy changes and even explicitly states that the reason Tumblr was removed from he app store was due to CP. Where's the source that states Tumblr lied about apple removing them?

>Apple removed Tumblr’s app from the App Store on November 16 because of child pornography on the site. Tumblr’s community guidelines have never allowed child pornography. Instead of stepping up its game on content monitoring though, it appears that the company has decided to press the nuke button on all porn.

No. 334030

>>334029
They might have lied initially but AFAIK we know they were taken down for CP, that part wasn't a lie.

As for all NSFW being banned weeks after the fact, I think it's it's a cross between staff laziness/understaffing/wanting the site moderation to be fully automated, and the possibility that they want to push more advertising on the site because tumblr generates little to no income as is. And advertisers won't advertise on an app rated 18+ and 50% pornographic.

No. 334035

>>334030
that was my point. they're trying to act like all the decisions being made are what they want when really it's apple. tumblr had nsfw and CP issues in 2011 and they didn't have any filters for minors at that point either. iirc a bunch of minors were contributing CP of themselves and nothing was age gated or being done about it.

I was fairly active on Tumblr and it was some of the biggest fun I've had on the internet, I was part of a hobby and would sometimes be answering anon asks all night while playing with my theme. It got me into online marketing and running POD/dropship stores. I really hate that customizing your profile went so out of style in favor of clinical apps.

And I agree that insta and twitter can fucking suck with art. You have to bandwagon hardcore for people to find you, it takes longer to gain popularity and twitter is just littered with memes.

Now I miss middle school where I would post my fanfics on my livejournal and format them. I do like how functional ao3 is but the community definitely isn't there.

I also miss the kind of fandiscussion that LJ had and I feel like tumblr was the last of it. There are reddit communities but a lot of times the discussion is just bad or it's not what I'm looking for. 4chan is also hit or miss.

Most of this is based in complete conjecture and a user in the comments already pointed out that the site is based on a subscription model.

I have a pillowfort, and I like the communites and being able to expose my art everywhere while also keeping it on my own blog. I'm not convinced this site is the end all be all, but as far as options go, there's only shitty social media platforms like twitter (good for shitposting and sharing news, bad for art) and…newgrounds, apparently? Or DA (I'm never going back there).

I guess if shit all hits the fan I will try newgrounds lol, I don't know when that became the art site of choice but anything is better than DA. There's also mastodon but I'm not really sure how that all works.

I really liked using tumblr as a resource for images and films so I’m not sure what to do. I had been following Japanese accounts that would post upcoming manga releases, blogs that would post models, advertisements, magazines clippings. A lot of artists I follow that aren’t even NSFW seem to be preparing to leave as well.

Tumblr is the only social media site I use but I don’t condone their censorship plan at all. I’m not sure what to switch over to but I don’t want to stay unless they change their plans.

try instagram. Why are people so opposed to it? It's super easy for artists to gain a following there. It's also easier to get noticed by "serious" people. No sharing system? When your followers like your art, it ends up in people's activity log or on their radar. I'm not that great and I do quite well on instagram

Instagram is actually terrible for artist, unless your only posting like g rated content.
Anytype of nudity, even very sfw nudity will get removed and if an artist has too many pictures removed then insta will just delete their account.
Some artist try putting Instagrams guidelines in the caption (which states that nudity in art is okay), along with censoring any nipples or genitalia but they'll still get taken down.
They just don't go any where for the lack of a better option.

The only thing I hate about Instagram is that it’s owned by Facebook. I don’t know if there is some algorithm between the two or something, but at one point I received an email from Insta/Facebook recommending to make an account because so many people I knew were on it. And this was after I stopped using my Facebook for a few years, so they still had all my info from my account.

I specifically use tumblr with anonymity/separation of reality in mind and only two people I know irl followed my account. There’s nothing I need to hide but I don’t want to deal with seeing mlm/influencer crap, facebook’s weird information hoarding, family making weird comments if they find my account

Its clear that I was a real person who was interacting with people and just using it as a networking base but they didnt care and it took weeks for me to even hear back from anyone.

>Some good news, I’ve been talking to two developers now and got them working together, we just had a meeting with the guys behind an existing large (millions of users) site similar to Tumblr, with a vibrant and open-minded community, and more importantly, it has open-minded owners who believe in free speech. They think we can get something done here to rescue the whole community.
>I’m not allowed to reveal the site name yet. I can tell you it’s mainstream, open to everyone, open-minded and welcoming. (It’s not WordPress or any site owned by Facebook or Twitter. It’s not Pillowfort, that’s in closed beta. It’s not Ello, that’s mainly for artists. It’s not kinkspace or fetlife, those are too specialist. It’s not jux, that seems to be closed. It’s not Soup, that seems still in development and too small.)

i hate when people do this(the op not you anon)
just get on with it so people have time to migrate before their shit gets yoinked

i remember when xanga did this
they basically started changing the terms of service and within a month people were being locked out of their accounts and couldnt rejoin unless they paid or remembered their passwords, which most people did not and all their shit was just gone in a mass deletion with no backup archive available to the public

i don't think so, in the post she said that video and audio file cant be supported due to cost reasons, which is all pornhub is

it wouldn't surprise me though if pornhub tried to pull something like this though,
didn't they do something similar during youtube's adocalypse. and they've been trying to push they're brand more mainstream in the last couple of years

Honestly, that's the good thing about this purge. It'll get rid of all of the violent rape porn and misogyny kink blogs. The glitching tagging system won't last long since they mentioned it might tag things that aren't against the tos

This. Also the trans/extreme SJW brigade will probably become less insane since their echochamber is gone.

How is Pillowfort? I assume some anons received their invites. I'm mildly interested but don't want to throw money in (even though it's only like $5) if it's not going to take off and will just fade into obscurity.

Dunno if anyone still cares about the blogging drama, but Pillowfort just clarified their stance on explicit artwork which is basically "if it is or looks like child porn it's banned" and weebs are crying about it in the comments because muh shipping and muh sports animes with 12 year olds.

Why are pedos so fucking entitled? Banning CP isn't a fucking human rights violation.
They're all super fucking pressed about not being able to draw their sports anime shotas and "school aged" HP porn. The fact that they're willing to allow "older adolescents" and have an actual moderator review flagged works is pretty damn lenient already.

No. 337798

>>337781
but anon, it's not really CP, it's just animu!

i don't get why these people try to justify this shit so hard. and when you ask them why they can't just read porn with characters that are otherwise the same, just not, you know, canonically children, they go silent. like, fuck off, you don't have to read or watch stuff with child characters that are sexualized. i hear this by other anime fans "x was good other than the pedoshit" then it wasn't good fuck off, there's tons of other shows that don't have that stuff.

No. 337874

Isn't it fucking weird?
Like, for whatever reason, an "anime" 14 year old should be allowed to be sexualized because they don't "fully" look their age…? And that somehow makes it okay?
Why haven't we seen the same response from the western comic community? Why aren't they fighting tooth and nail for their right to draw teen/younger characters like Danny Phantom, people from gravity falls, SU humans? Probably because they fucking know it's creepy and shameful as fuck so they just stick to hentai sites instead of sites used primarily for children.

No. 338068

>>337798
or they just tell you they're ~emotionally invested~ in the characters and everyone has sex so why is it such a big deal!???

more sites should just take a hard "adult or no dice" stance on it. I don't know why anyone would want to capitulate to this audience when it's degenerate at best and illegal at worst.

No. 338242

I see men (of course) whine about how some western fandoms don't cater to their pedoshit tastes on 4chan. It comes up in Voltron threads pretty often, pedo men wanting porn of Pidge and getting mad that they're in a majority fujo fandom. And of course, when you call them out as the pedos they are, they go for the "ACKSHUALLY IT'S EPHEB" excuse.

Fandom men are worthless.

the anime thing is so weird cause they can just find characters that are 18+ that are exactly the same. would it be kind of creepy? sure, but it's a better defense to like a character that looks young but is older than a character that's supposed to be the young age.

I've heard so many excuses for loli porn but it's all bullshit.
>'Sexualized 12 year olds are totally okay because the target audience is 14 year old boys!'
>'They don't even look like real people!'
>'Loli porn actually prevents child abuse by giving pedos an outlet!'
>'Lolicons only like 2D girls! They'll never harm 3D girls!' (despite incidents of them preying on real girls)
>'Women against lolis are just jealous old hags!' (KEK)

I can't even stand the 'legal' lolis because it's just a lazy excuse to make it seem okay. 'She looks and acts like an 8 year old but she's actually a 2000 year old demon so it's totally okay!' like wtf.

No. 338334

>>338325
that kind of "legal loli" is fucking stupid.

there are plenty of characters that are petite and maybe small chested adults and plenty of woman characters that are a bit childish. that's fine, maybe a bit weird, but there are women like this in real life it's not predatory in the same way. but if you like small and childish characters, chances are you're a pedo, especially if you need to jump through a ton of hoops to prove they're not actually children.

>>'Lolicons only like 2D girls! They'll never harm 3D girls!' (despite incidents of them preying on real girls)

Pedos love throwing out this one, even though time and again, it's been proven that many of them have preyed on kids or tried, and that many of the artists use pictures of real kids for references.

I love when you say "that character looks like a kid because insert childish characteristic here so that's gross" and you get tumbltards shrieking "WELL IM SMALL CHESTED ARE YOU SAYING THAT I LOOK LIKE A CHILD AND ONLY PEDOS LIKE ME THATS SO HURTFUL" and completely and very obviously try to deflect from the fact that they're defending CP. lol.
