the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away

being single sucks [remembers that romantic love isnt the gleaming beacon of salvation that will fix the chasm within me] #mychasm #isupportmychasm [remembers not to trivialize my emotions] but it is painful to never have been deemed worthy of that kind of lasting love [remembers how many incels there are] but honestly you should be totally self-sufficient and never want anything ever [remembers that im evil] im evil

now that we are all forcibly assigned teen by discord age regression style and everyone has cancelled their nitro. everyone whose been using a solo discord server as your paste bin and project planning folder to hold stuff you can get from your phone and pc both its about time you start saving shit and hop on obsidian. with syncthing you can get it realtime synced between your mobile and pc and any devices for free too. don't pay for monthly fees.

obsidian

Obsidian advertises itself as a note-taking or journaling program which is basically what it is. If you're a programmer, it may look very similar to Visual Studio Code in design language. It has some cool features like the ability to link notes between each other which can help for formulating thoughts and keeping track of what you're writing.

It also has a robust plugin system accessible from settings, and you can add images to keep better track of the important things in life. obsidian is cross-platform and works on phones and such too

2. syncthing

you should be using syncthing for many things in your life. go to the downloads page and download the windows setup, the macos bundle, or install it through your package manager if you're on linux; there's an app called Mobius Sync on iOS that I can vouch does work, but you'll need to pay for it after the first 20MB which is stupid. Android's Syncthing-Fork works great.

After you install it you'll be brought to a webpage; ignore the stuff in my screenshot. As I said, you should be using syncthing! I do, often!

While you're at this, find another device you'd like to share files between and install a version of Syncthing on there too. Once that's done, you can click the "Add Remote Device" button here and link the clients together. You'll see a big string of numbers under the Device ID section which you can click which should facilitate this easy.

Syncthing is very helpful for game saves, I've used it before to share music files between my PC and my phone, and to tie it back with Obsidian, it can be used to easily share your Obsidian notes across platforms. A very nice thing about Obsidian is the fact that its save structure is very basic, just folders and markdown files.

"Doesn't Obsidian have a paid tier for syncing files?" Yes, but you don't need to use it. If you'd like to, you can. Syncthing works fine, and it always will.

Fill out the Folder Path, then in Sharing choose a device you'd like to share to. You'll receive a notification on that device asking you where you'd like to store the shared data.

deciding one day that you want to build a life for yourself is so scary. like damn I really want to live… I’m new to this. where do I even begin

[multi-fandom-lunatic]

chat reminder to just write whatever the fuck you want. write that overused trope. write that obscure shit that no one will have heard of. just. do it. your writing is yours stop depriving it of that.

[sadboybrigade]

honestly in the era of AI slop it is more important than ever for you to write or draw that incredibly niche/strange/unpalatable thing you want to make. the world needs the unique weirdness of people more than ever

[anj-does-stuff]

Oh wow I hate this. So I tested it a little on a side blog and this is what it does

Then, if you go to the notes on the original post, it only shows the reblog from "two"

So the OP doesn't get to see how much engagement their post has unless people like/reblog from the original post. If someone adds any sort of comment, it splits them up like this. Artists, writers, crafters will see less engagement, nobody will know how far the reach of their post is or if someone says something nice about it. If you want OP to know, you'd have to make a conscious effort to reblog from the first post listed in the chain.

Not only is this going to be bad for general community things, but this could easily promote harassment. You won't see anything but the initial reblog from you if someone makes an addition, so there could be whole conversations that go completely missed.

Thanks, tumblr. Very cool 👍

[pangur-and-grim]

a core part of being on tumblr is watching the site kick itself in the dick

[wickedsnack]

so as long as tumblr keeps this, here's the tumblr version of etiquette that was maintained when twitter's quote-retweets affected artist visibility/notes:

for art that someone has added reblog commentary to (or removed the caption from), reblog from the source

otherwise, avoid adding reblog comments to art (as this will affect the artist's notes/visibility)—utilize tags and replies to provide commentary (which artists will absolutely appreciate)

reblog comments are comments added to the body of a post, not the tags and not replies.

[tumblr]

Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve. 

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!

[changes]

It’s very clear that you all have strong feelings about Tumblr and about this change. We hear you. The passion people have for how Tumblr works is one of the things that makes this place special.

As this rolls out over the next few days and you explore it, we’ll keep reading your replies and reblogs, so please keep sharing your questions, concerns, and ideas.

Your creativity has always been the heart of Tumblr, whether you’re the original poster or adding something brilliant in the reblogs, and nothing about this change is meant to limit that.

If you’d like to talk directly beyond the comments, leave a reply and we’ll follow up with as many of you as we can. We want to work with you to make Tumblr better.

[pukicho]

Hey staff. This one really needs to be reversed. Tumblr isn't built for a quote-retweet equivalent like this.

Ultimately, it just feels a lot worse to use, conversations are more segmented, you can't keep track of things by referring to the original post anymore, artists lose traction faster on their original posts this way, the community feels smaller as a result, and jokes don't land the same.

This wouldn't affect me, I could easily out-reply most users and grab attention away from the original poster - this is a bad thing, and it's another reason why it shouldn't exist.

If you value the community, you should have tested this out and sought feedback BEFORE pushing it out as a public release. This makes tumblr less novel, less comfortable and more like twitter (in a worse way)

[subspaceskater]

i didnt think that they could still make structural changes to tumblr in 2026 that would honestly make me consider never using this site again but damn was i wrong.
