You know, this is why content creators end up abandoning their works, right?
80 likes compared to 10 reblogs means that only 12% of people decided that what you did is worth showing other people.
If you like the thing, reblog it. You don’t even have to add tags, just spread it so that a) other people can see it, and b) the creator gets recognition for what they did.
Obviously, those numbers are never going to match, but the divide should not be that huge.
It’s even more important right now, because tumblr is garbage and they’ve stopped allowing anything with an outside link from appearing in tags. Writers/artists cannot tag things to their twitter/store/writing website. That can cause a significant drop in views, especially for newer creators.
Like… we aren’t asking for much. A few reblogs. Reviews/comments. No creator should have to beg for that much.
Please can you support me by reblogging my stuff, not just liking otherwise that won’t appear in anyone’s dashboard anymore 😔 That’s mainly why I left Tumblr for a while. I don’t what to get 100k on my stuff, only wish to have the feeling my stuff and my work are worthy. Thanks you
This is the reason why I’ve stopped uploading my builds to Simblr. The idea of spending a month perfecting a build, only to be disregarded, is soul-crushing for a creator. Oh well :|
I think what kinda bugs me the most is how I’ll have a huge amount of downloads, but then a small portion of notes on tumblr (mostly likes, of course). I feel like people should get into the habit of at least liking a post if you download their creation/mod/art because it really does mean a lot to a creator. Makes it feel more like they care about you as a creator rather than only caring about what you make. Not that I’m complaining, but it does make me appreciate those who do like and reblog more!
