Deathshipping cottagecore au! Ryou finds an intriguing timberman in the woods. He invites him to his cottage for tea over a long conversation about deadly nightshade and other plants in his garden. It's a good thing Ryou isn't afraid of axes and Amir isn't afraid of poison. Art by me.

“reblogs aren’t important you’re just whiny”

yeah because when you see this

tell me you don’t get annoyed.

tumblr’s algorithm only cares about posts that are reblogged, it doesn’t count likes. posts don’t get promoted or circulated when they only have likes (the way instagram functions), only reblogs matter for increasing reach on tumblr as a platform.

support content creators.

[bramblewing-deactivated20210119]

like y'all are fuckin killing tumblr (& content creation) but okay

you think that’s not a lot of notes? that’s cute.

but yeah, tumblr’s system definitely doesn’t advantage non-popular artists, but there’s a big problem from within the community too. i have over 400 followers and i consider myself lucky when more than 2 people reblog my art, so imagine how much worse it is for people with even less followers.

reblog content creators, guys. liking posts doesn’t do anything.

[fallnangelcreations]

THIS!

[vex-vexey]

Reblog art and writing.

[jonundead]

Seriously if you like something, SPREAD IT!

Sorry to break it to you but they’re all right. Tumblr isn’t Instagram. Likes don’t get us anywhere. Everybody’s “drop a heart and keep scrolling” mentality has murdered all of my original content sideblogs. Each and every one of them.

[imfemalewarrior]

I have this problem on my blog too 

if one third to one fifth of an original post’s notes on my blog are reblogs that’s considered great for me, it’s usually 1 in 10 or even 1 in 20 being a reblog. 

That means my philosophy doesn’t get spread very far. If I make promo posts barely anyone sees them. I know people didn’t like the self promo/repeat posts I did but heres the thing: nobody else was reblogging them, so only a few people saw them at a time, so that left me with the only option of reblogging things over and over to try and get them seen by more people. 

Reblogs used to dominate likes with ease, if memory serves correctly there were at least 2 reblogs for every like in the notes 

Liking a post doesn’t boost it, and it doesn’t spread it around like when you like something on twitter 

If you see art or writing you like, I encourage you to reblog it. My blog is a bit more unique in its subject matter and how my followers interact with it as i’m not writing fiction or creating artworks for people to admire and love; but the artists and writers on tumblr need those reblogs so more people can see their work and commission them or buy their products.

Not at peoples being annoyed at us doing self-reblog or self-promotion, like… if you hate us for reblogging our own stuff, then YOU reblog our stuff.

[imfemalewarrior]

You said it so much better and more succinctly than me

-FemaleWarrior

[kkeke99]

Just know that your words are the reason I quoted this post (because I was going only to reblog tbh), I used to never voice out this matter because I didn’t want to seem annoying to others. But now… screw this honestly, I want to be appreciated too and I want peoples who doesn’t gets the appreciation they deserve to get appreciated too.

[imfemalewarrior]

That’s how I feel as well!

On twitter liking does the same thing as retweeting (and actually more than that bc any notes from people seeing a liked tweet go to the post’s creator). On tumblr it doesn’t do anything.

On the one hand tumblr can be good for supporting artists by teaching people to value and pay for their work (unless you’re a fiber artist) but on the other hand it’s not really a good environment for them and it just keeps getting worse

I always find it cute how Deku clearly likes and appreciates Tokoyami’s aesthetic despite it being very different from his own

Also I’m 100% certain that Deku voted for Tokoyami to be room king and no one can convince me otherwise

Bonus:

That little blush tho
