If you need a temporary alternative:

As for Tumblr Resources:

- the tag for #reddit blackout -should have information to help get you up to speed on tumblr culture

A lot of the guides I've seen don't actually seem to understand how reddit works in comparison to tumblr so your blog is basically your own

-if someone comments on your shoelaces, dont ask. "I stole them from the president" is like our club password. Our official language is meme and fandoms, but you'll learn.

-your profile functions like a myspace blog. Please customize it because our antibot measures are userbased.

-we have a bot problem. Block is your best friend if you get tired of something. Careful with reporting as there's kind of a staff bigotry concern so we play by an antisnitch honorcode if its not like...a hate crime.

- use follow/search tags to set up your dash. Because we DO NOT have an algorithm. Whatever you think is algorithmic is run by a primitive hampster powered computer. Sometimes the lil guy fucks up.

-review your settings. You can also sensor the content you see by going to account settings and blocking by tag

-idc if you like Supernatural. You're gonna want to subscribe to the Destiel Meme tag. Thats like the news around here. [Taged here to get you there]

The tag is now apparently: #destiel meme

- @hellsite-hall-of-fame is a fair source for the history of tumblr culture for you to catch up. Like our Know Your Meme.

-reblogs are the prime currency here. Likes are cool. The comment section can be a mess. Stay out of it unless you just really want to add something to the OG post. Tags are how we comment. Tags are also the closest thing to an algorithm we have so dont go tagging things that are just the top 5 trending or people will blocj your ass. Thats botass behavior and we hate bots.

-porn bots are a problem. DO NOT ENGAGE. Think I will make a second post about bots and how to set things up as prevention at some point.

Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible

It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.
