Short lived
Not that I have a big fallowing, so not loosing much myself, but I feel for artists who used this place as one where they could reach greater audiences, and post a wide range of their works. I like doing cute stuff, and horror. Clean, and adult. I do original, fantasy, fan art, and a wide array of things. Keeping tons of accounts for all these was daunting, and hoped tumblr to be my place to unify them. Guess fucking not.
Only recently have I been able to return to the internet and found it to be much changed, and I was enjoying places like tumblr and instagram. I joined tumblr mainly for artists like @whateverbender who took to this medium and used it well. Now he is in crisis over finding a new place and adapting to it, as tumblr joins a long line of places that feels the fact people can’t police themselves or their children, must do it for them.
This is but another step in the wrong direction for society and social media. When the hammer comes down, and no hope of return is in sight, I shal join others in abandoning this service that has stabbed its loyal members in the back.
I hate censorship.
