Tumblr is still alive, but it's a shell of what it used to be. Given the behavior of Spez, it's only a matter of time before Reddit ends up the same.

Imagine the kinds of fuckery that will happen when Reddit has shareholders.

There's been discussions about Tumblr getting on ActivityPub which would be interesting.

Activitypud? Does that mean they can connect to us? Or something

Exactly that, like kbin, lemmy, mastodon, pixelfed, peertube, etc.

Tumblr has at least managed to carve out an interesting little niche for itself at this point.
