How do y’all like Tumblr?

I’ve been wanting to get tumblr as an additional social  to go on and I wanted to ask how other people like it to see if I should get it.

As much as rolling around in sewage, considering they're essentially the same thing.

Its trash, I love it

i like it to look at fanart/memes for my favourite fandoms, i also like it because you can filter out stuff you don't want to see in account settings so that's a positive

the actual site gets worse and worse every year, but, for finding pics and stalking cults of personality, it's still the best out there.

i'm a tumblr girl since 14 years old (but i don't connect my tumblr here), which i think is the best way to use the website, but if you have to join later i recommend following a lot of gifmakers & blocking ruthlessly. it really is great, mostly because of the tagging system which is both organizational and a form of whispering under your post, which i find clandestine and fun. also there are a lot of [crypto]terfs around but again that's what the ruthless blocking is for. also if you like to follow runway fashion there are a good amount of blogs that are still doing fashion blogging. tumblr just like. doesn't really function like any other social media site, which is what i like about it. you'll learn the rules! it's like this deep ocean culture where you have all these new little gen z internet culture pieces but then you've got these 500 year old millenial sharks floating around. it's very unique. i would say the most shitty thing about tumblr userbase-wise is that it has the racism + antiblackness + transmisogyny problem that other sites like twitter or insta or tiktok have, but the userbase kind of refuses to admit it. it's very canadian in that way. it's like the canada of the internet. block well and go forth in power 🫡 use tags a lot and feel free to develop your own tagging system, it's one of the most charming aspects of the website. 

if you're liberal with your usage of the block button then i think it's a great experience

ew we don't talk about that... mark my words when i say: stay away from it if you wanna keep your brain cells and sanity :)

I really like Tumblr, idk why people act like it's so toxic, I guess I'm just good at not following people who suck lol, just stick to your followers feed instead of the "For You" page

could just be based on my algorithm it's really tame compared to other apps i think it's interesting to see art every once in a while.

It's a beautiful hellscape but I was doxxed there at the ripe age of 14 so like the block button is your best friend.
