yknow ever since people realized tumblr isnt dead and have decided to flock here from twitter and tiktok ive seen a huge influx of people in fandom spaces who dont reblog anything. at all.

like, i used to have an art blog with 340 followers. not a ton but not a small amount either given how this website works with creators. and in my experience back then even the ones who only left likes still reblogged other things or at least posted their own stuff. literally the only empty blogs were clearly bots.

but on this New art blog, i've had so many people with fandom-specific headers and icons with actual usernames as urls and some kind of title or description, but have. Nothing. no posts. all they do is like things. and it's always public, too. their following list and their likes list.

and honestly all it makes me think is that these people are New and also don't know how tumblr works. how likes don't give exposure. not even in a "oh, i know it doesn't give exposure, but i'm still going to reblog anyways" way, but in a genuine honest to god straight up doesn't realize tumblr likes don't work like twitter's.

PLEASE please if you're from tiktok or twitter or whatever please reblog people's art both fandom and original if you like it!! and maybe actually pad out your blog's content in some way so people won't potentially see you as a bot and block you.

REBLOG ARTIST'S WORK. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY GET ANY ATTENTION ON THIS WEBSITE OH MY GOD. PLEASE. I BEG of you

Hey, Tumblr needs to be a lot more. Story system, blue tick profiles and many more features. It's really painful to use Tumblr without them. I see this place not as a website, but as social media.

i agree that tumblr needs to be more. but i’d go the opposite direction, and make tumblr less like other social media sites. i want a tumblr that’s more unique, safer, weirder, less prone to fostering the behavior that other platforms promote that end up making people addicted and depressed and questioning their self-worth.

i wouldn’t invest a dime in any now-traditional social media platform these days, like twitter/facebook/instagram/tiktok.

Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.

I think if you overuse leet speak you owe every dyslexic and/or visually impaired person $100. "Oh it's my typing quirk it's because I'm autistic :(" you are literally doing this on purpose & giving me a migraine

the black and white makes it feel like an old sci-fi movie.
