REBLOG IF YOU’RE A NSFW BLOG
We all have seen the Tumblr communicate about forbidding nsfw blogs or those which have “adult” posts.
They think it won’t cause them any harm, but we are a really big part of the community. Let’s act and tell the staff that tumblr will slowly die after taking this decision. Follow these steps:
- First of all, REBLOG THIS POST, so any NSFW blog can post and see it.
- Give tumblr the worst mark at the App Store or Play Store
- Write a negative comment about how they’re banning accounts and censoring the freedom of expression.
- Purpose as a comment below a new site to move as a NSFW community.
If you do this before the 17 of December, we can change this decision. Let’s make the staff hear us. Make tumblr great again, a free place for free minds and free content!!
Personally, I enjoyed every single moment here at tumblr, and I appreciate everyone of my followers and blogs that I follow. If they delete my account… It was a pleasure to know you all. But we can still change this!!!
Regards!
Alternatives to Tumblr if Yahoo goes any further
- Soup.io - well-known alternative to Tumblr. Reblogging, post types, themes, collab blogs, dashboard, artsy, great community already there. Soup can auto-import everything you’ve posted on Tumblr.
- TypePad - Includes reblogging. Dashboard and post types similar to Tumblr.
- Jux - Artful posts, beautiful blogging experience
Reblogging cause one day it just may be neccessary.
It became necessary
If you’re leaving Tumblr for good, then cancel your account on your way out.
Sounds drastic. Especially for content creators who may still need Tumblr for commissions while they find an alternative.
If you can swing it, here’s why:
I suspect that the December 17th deadline is so that Verizon/Yahoo can clean house and make Tumblr appealing to investors. This is a Q4/Q1 fire sale kind of thing. It makes a certain amount of business sense to make this change. Human-lead content curation (e.g. separating the CP from the legit) is expensive and time-consuming. I doubt they have the money for it. They already sold off Flickr. As a long-time Flickr pro user, I’m not pleased by the change and increase in pro account price, but I get it.
Investors are looking for a user base. User base is a prime attraction for investment or buy-out for a social media platform or application (I speak from experience as a co-founder of Rhinobird.tv).
Every account that is cancelled will be one less account in Tumblr’s user base for their pitch. I assume that there are millions of accounts with some percentage simply being abandoned accounts that haven’t been used in years. So cancelling one’s account on the way out the door won’t really matter unless the number of cancelled accounts reaches several hundred thousand at least.
If you decide to leave and cancel, then I also recommend sending a polite message to Tumblr staff, or tweet to the account about why you are leaving.
Finally, using Twitter to voice your concerns and thoughts about this issue will increase its visibility. They ain’t gonna like that. Media outlets that cater to tech entrepreneurs, and Silicon Valley types are going to be all over this.
I never ask for reblogs, but I will this one time.
To my friends and followers
With Tumblr’s looming censorship (and demise) just days away (and they are already censoring posts), I’m moving to other quarters.
I already have a presence on Twitter: @nipfun but I’m not sure how long Twitter will allow kinky stuff to appear.
I found a couple of other sites that are promising: explicitr.com and what seems to be a porn clone of Tumblr, Swarmr. My site: https://swarmr.com/nipfun
I will be watching the Tumblr feed to see if some other of my favorite blogs will be rebirthed on the above or other sites. Drop me a line and let me know how to connect with you! I will have my Tumblr open until December 17.
Thank you all for all the hot and wonderful times these past years! Keep in touch.
Tumblr is killing itself
I’m going to be switching to other sites, and closing this one by the 17th. I’m on Twitter with the same handle, and have opened an account on the nascent ExplicitR.com site. We’ll see what happens with that one.
I’m also on Recon as nipfun3 and Fetlife as nipfun.
See you on the other side!
