fyodorpavlov: RIP Tumblr, I guess! This was a long time coming, ever since Yahoo bought this website and made NSWF content unsearchable. The current party line is that this won’t affect visual artists, but I seriously doubt that - especially considering that oops, as we can see above, it already has (the cropped image is perfectly safe, but this is from a post of several illustrations that were decidedly not! It’s a shame, because after the death of livejournal, Tumblr has been my online blogging platform of choice and the place where I showcased my art and found a community of fans and fellow artists who have encouraged, supported and shared my art for many years. It’s been in decline for a while, and how I use it has changed accordingly. But it was still accessible, still filled with accounts and artists I liked, and was still a pretty great way to get my work out there. It brought me recognition and clients. A few people have written in to ask if I’m going to be moving on to greener pastures, such as Pillowfort or Ello. At the moment I don’t plan to. So where can y’all find me and follow me?InstagramTattoo InstagramPatreonTwitterMy websiteSociety6FacebookMy instagram and my patreon are by far the most active accounts! And I will still be posting here as much as I have been, I imagine, but I imagine it will be a very different landscape with these disappointing changes. Thank you all for following me, sending me lovely notes (even if I don’t reply, I read and appreciate them), and supporting my work! I love you. -- source link
