The Death of the Digital Ecosystem: Why Decoupling Notes Destroys Tumblr
@changes (Edit: I already sent this to Tumblr Support under the feedback option. I encourage everyone to send feedback on how bad this feature actually is).
For years, the total note count on a post served as a universal metric of a piece of content's impact. Whether a user liked the original post or a reblog fifteen branches deep, that engagement flowed back to the source. This ensured that the original artist, writer, or editor received the full credit for the viral success of their work.
Under this new system, engagement is trapped within the specific reblog a user happens to see on their dashboard. If a massive, high-traffic blog reblogs a piece of art from a small creator, every like and reblog that occurs through that larger account stays with them. The original creator is left with a stagnant note count on their own dashboard while their work generates thousands of interactions for someone else.
Erasure of Creator Visibility
Instead of seeing one post with 10,000 notes, a creator may now have to hunt through dozens of different reblog chains to find where the conversation is actually happening.
If the notes no longer flow back to the original post, the creator loses the ability to see who is enjoying their work, what the tags say, and how the community is responding.
On a platform where engagement often dictates visibility, splitting that engagement into tiny, unlinked fractions makes it significantly harder for original works to gain momentum compared to the high-reach blogs that reblog them.
Incentivizing the "Big Blog" Monopoly
This system rewards accounts that have already established a large following at the direct expense of the smaller accounts that actually produce the content. It transforms reblogging from a method of sharing into a method of acquisition.
When a reblog functions as its own independent post with its own note count, the incentive to click through to the original source disappears. The platform is transitioning from a collaborative ecosystem into a standard social media feed where the person who posts the content last—not the person who made it—reaps the rewards.
Impact on Collaborative Conversations
Tumblr’s unique culture is built on the reblog chain: a chronological, evolving conversation. By allowing users to like or reblog "any part" of the chain as an independent entity, the platform is breaking the narrative thread.
If engagement is siloed into specific branches, the incentive to add to a conversation is replaced by an incentive to simply own a piece of the engagement. This change doesn't encourage conversation. It encourages the commodification of individual posts within a chain, making it harder for the original voice to ever be heard over the noise of the rebloggers.
The Disincentive to Create
Perhaps the most damaging aspect of this update is the psychological toll on the creative community. When the platform actively diverts credit and engagement away from the source, it destroys the motivation to share original work at all.
For many, the reward for posting is seeing how far their work travels. If that travel is now invisible or attributed to others, the labor of creating becomes thankless.
This system makes creators want to share nothing. If the platform is built to harvest a creator's effort for the benefit of curator blogs, the logical response is to stop providing the raw material. I am one leaning into this category. Without us creators, the curator blogs have nothing to curate.
By making it harder to protect and track one's own work, the platform is effectively telling creators that their presence is secondary to the conversations happening around their work: conversations they may no longer even be able to find.
Another wip on another commission for Morrow on FR! They wanted emote sheet for RP's.
Finally finished that commission! :) for Solgalion on FR!

Don't think I ever posted this bad boy. Its a start to a ref-sheet for Valkyries long lost brother Lich! He is MOSTLY organic with very few mechanical inhancements! He's as nasty as they come, the icy warden is bitter and hateful for the treatment he endured for centuries. He is the one responsible for Valkyries death in my little story.
Saw Iron lung last night and was confused for the majority of it, but that's because I hadn't watched him play the game before. I am now watching his playthrough. However, that didn't stop it from being a really good movie for me! The setting was immaculate, the concept and feelings he wanted to portray were clear and communicated well. The fear, Isolation, Claustrophobia, and submechanophobia were represented well throughout the movie! The creature and its reveal through the usage of the camera was eerie and honestly did its job of creeping me out lol. All in all, for his first film I think Mark did amazing. Its completely different from movies you see being put out today and I'm all for it!
A self indulgent Valentines day comic strip. A scene from mine and my friends RP, its their first date and kiss! <3 Happy Early Valentines day to all who celebrate it!

ICE rant sorry not sorry
I try to stay out of political stuff but it becomes hard when I see people getting murdered for exercising their rights. Innocent people getting murdered everyday for trying to prevent others from being murdered. This country sickens me to the core. Sorry for the rant.
I seriously hope Trump and his gestapo get what's coming to them.
