Tumblr is back? (Patreon)
Content
I guess some of you people remember about Tumblr and how they betrayed nude art about 4 years ago, by banning nsfw contents from the platform and eliminating every content of that type from their website.
I learned that in that process they lost 1/3 of their public, but I'm sure also the remaining 2/3 of people were bored of using such a sterile version of the platform anyway.
One of my followers on Twitter has told me that nudity has been recently restored on Tumblr, so I went back to have a look myself, and apparently we are allowed to share nsfw again!
Not extreme sex as before the ban, but at least the nudity I do should be accepted...
During the weekend I made some experiments with both of my old profiles and had no problem, so I imagine every one of the so called "Tumblr refugee" can reclaim his place on the social network.
I think I will start building my house on that soil once more, from the ground up, hoping they have learned the lesson and will not repeat the same error ever again.
I call it an error because the idea of Tumblr bosses to create an enchanted garden where to grow ads doesn't appear to have worked very well, and the only ads I have seen currently are their own, either trying to sell you the blue checkmark at the very same price as Twitter's, or their branded shoelaces.
Possibly Tumblr is going to become my preferred short blog output in the future, something like the stories on YouPic when I had the gifted PRO subscription, if you want to keep an eye on it, I leave you the links to my profiles:

But Cristiana is still going to remain a Patreon exclusive model, at least for the moment.
