    Why do people who post tumblr post screenshots act as if they’re a long lost civilization. people still post there. half the “ancient forgotten tumblr posts” are from like 2019 onwards

        it’s way more active than people think it is. it’s just a bit of a closed garden app that is mainly text-based, so posts only get shared onto other sites via screenshots, and people always assume that those screenshots are ancient relics from like 2008 but really most of the time they’re from like a couple of months ago

        as a side note, the CEO said that they’re going to implement activitypub into tumblr so hopefully in the future they’ll be an integration between tumblr and the fediverse, which would be cool

      Well you’re not wrong lol. Some are trying to get back to business as usual, but it’s quite the shitshow over there.
