If you haven’t been paying attention, tumblr got sold for pocket change to the Wordpress company, who promptly told the surviving staff “do whatever.” So now they have an ad free subscription, which is good.

then they stole an idea from somethingawful: give them ten American dollars and they will shotgun whatever shitpost you want onto 2500 random people’s dashboards. No targeting or anything, just “congratulations you get “hobbit love” or whatever that post about infinite chocolate.

@Xarph We have been honestly debating going back to Tumblr if not for the fact we left it previously due to the virulent harassment that circled on there around 2014.
Also we just don't like reblogs as the main form of feedback/engagement, as it divorces context and makes moderation difficult, compared to the likes of comment sections.

But also *Twitter* is now the main hub of garbage and is pretty awful for art so we really do wonder...
