    That post came after Lucy's, although they are both timed at the same time. So she couldn't have seen that.

    I think it is a shame that it is happening, of course the children should be protected at all costs and the peddos stopped but there was some really nice and sensual gifs and pictures shared there that I enjoyed. Twitter is more porn based but tumblr, I really liked it there.

    The new CEO is apparently a twit. They won't even allow 'female-presenting nipples'.

    And, the way he put it was:

    "Over the past several months, and inspired by our storied past, we’ve given serious thought to who we want to be to our community moving forward and have been hard at work laying the foundation for a better Tumblr."

    That is simply an outrageously elitist statement.

    Nipples and women breastfeeding babies are banned everywhere.. Sex education is banned on almost every platform.. But the pedophiles and groomers are still allowed to post their damn costume shows on YouTube to lure kids in because they are fully dressed..

    Any thoughts about what will be the "new tumblr" for quickie, personally curated porn?

    I feel like someone is cheesing that petition. Even if the biggest names in Tumblr porn pushed it, I can't see it legitimately wracking up 115,000 signatures in ~10 hours.

    I’m not sad to hear it. I don’t frequent Tumblr very often, and the few things I have found on there that are of any value really weren’t worth wading through a sea of filth to find.

    Tumblr has over 23 million users and somewhere around half of them use it to post/view adult content. If anything, these numbers seem low (even if just 1% used it, they'd seem low).

    So many sex workers, dommes, findommes, sugarbabes, slaves, fetish artists are on tumblr so I would say it is normal..

    I agree they are making a mistake, users will drop off on 12/17. A real shame!

    The logical thing to do would be to create a new site called TumblrXXX or Tumblr18 and move all the adult stuff there.

    I had my husband make a website on tumblr. It is about things he likes when I do them. I am wondering where he should move it. He’s way better at tech stuff but does anyone have any suggestions?

    I'm sorry to learn this, it's been a central site for chastity and femdom content for me, and has really helped me and allowed me to expand my mental vocabulary and understand and envision developments in my own sexuality and submission.

    Good bye tumblr, say hi to MySpace. I find it odd that the, and I mean THE only reason it was that popular is because of the adult content. To remove that content and not expect a backlash is idiocy. So, it seems they are willing to take it on the chin for their beliefs, or worried about lawsuits. I commend their stand and sticking to something that will almost assuredly turn one of the most visited sites on the internet, into a very small niche site. Craigslist did the same with personals, but they can survive because it is used for tons of other reasons.

    As far as alternatives, Reddit I’m sure has plenty of room.

    so they gave 'serious thought' about whom they want in their community, but they're only talking about blocking nsfw content, not about things like violence or racism. That tells a lot...
    Seeing what non-adult content has been falsely flagged as nsfw, they will also piss of their wanted community and tumblr will be dead in no time.

    I also wonder if images created with https://open_nsfw.gitlab.io are allowed... if those pics were posted massively, would it turn their filter-algorithm completely useless?

    Hey Tumblr, guess what, Pinterest already has the spot you seem to be wanting to occupy. Good luck with that....

    BDSMLR.COM is already up and running (and has been for awhile, it seems). It is basically a clone of Tumblr (the interface even looks identical). Several of the blogs I followed have already moved over.

    I have always had some sort of Tumblr blog over the last 4 years ... Pegging / Lingerie / Sex Toys / etc.

    They are 100% image based (very little if any text) and now I'm looking for a new platform (like tumblr) to move to since Tumblr is going on a censorship mission.

    Those of you that have Tumblr blogs (image based) where are you headed to?

    rohosub suggested minds.com and it looks pretty good ... https://www.minds.com/rohosub

    https://sharesome.com looks ok if you can get it to load .. lol

    I don't really like Twitter ...

    I have my own domain and server to run a Blog on so I'm looking for the social aspect of what was on Tumblr.

    If you are just looking for a collection of porn pictures.....millions of them... There is imagefap.com and fuskator.com

    That's all I am aware of. Hope that helps.

    Must admit I thought tumblr pretty crap really. I rarely I looked at it and that I wont miss using it at all. TBH many a time people have followed a link to tumblr and i have never been able to make one work. Id follow the link have to log in and then not be able to actually find the thing I was supposed to be looking at.

    Its a shame though really as I do most strongly oppose censorship. Some adults applying their choices to standards ethics or mrality to other adults is always wrong.

    With obvious exceptions ... obviously kiddie porn , or any material posted without consent of the subject or owner of the subject matter if that is not a person.
