Let me proceed that Picard episode a bit more. Then I can get up from the sofa and post today's Underneath The Silence update. (And suffer more over B's rhymes.)

As a gif maker, I cannot stress enough how important it is that people do NOT utilize the Tumblr Post+ feature.

With fanfic, writers have the resources to transfer their content to other sites - particularly AO3, which works especially hard to make sure works are protected. There are places writers can go (and I do encourage you all to backup any written fanworks you have here on Tumblr to AO3!).

Gif makers do not have this same luxury. We have no viable alternative site to post our content. Content that is made directly for fandom. Tumblr is the only viable site we can use to properly display the fanworks we create. It’s the only site that has the capacity to host our work on a scale we want it to be. This is why we are all still here, putting gifsets on this site (even if the sharing of content is abysmal these days). Tumblr, despite it’s many flaws, has gone to extensive lengths to make this a gifset-supportive site.

It’s the only place we can truly work the way we wanna work, to make the posts y’all love to see from your favorite shows and movies.

We have no other stable, viable option.

So as someone who’s main form of fanwork contribution to my respective fandoms is gif-making, please please please do not utilize Tumblr Post+.
