I basically had to unfollow everyone on the latter platform
(ttrpg.network)
On both social media I still use, I followed bunch of indie ttrpg devs. I had to unfollow the ones on tumblr because they don't talk about anything but how much they hate D&D, up to including writing weird headcanons about people who help popularize it (I actually seen someone on tumblr claim Brenann Lee Mulligan must HATE D&D because only dumb people could like it and is only pretending to like it for clout) or bich about how D&D fans only want to play D&D and get mad when you tell them they're complaining about a small minority.
meanwhile indie ttrpg devs on Bluesky constantly promote their work and inform of sales of their products. I found many cool games through bluesky, meanwhile nove through tumblr.
Not only does tumblr still have users after the porn ban, it still has users after it became glaringly obvious that the admins/mods are anti trans rights. AFAIK it didn't even turn into a full-on neonazi cesspool like X, though there is a significant presence of TERFs.
Gross, glad I only ever hear about them in this manner instead of first hand.
Why do the tumbler users not simply build a third party alternative to migrate to?
Well there's wafrn, but I think tumblr is a bit of a special case because so many people find it hard to understand even compared to reddit or twitter, and due to how user-focused and offkey its content is it's kind of hard to migrate to a different platform - with lemmy and mastodon, you can search a bunch of keywords and quickly have a feed with content that mostly interests you that you can build from, but this wouldn't quite work for tumblr-style platforms. On top of that, lemmy and mastodon users tend to be focused on techy and political content, which is a different demographic from tumblr's.
they tried with Pillowfort and it crashed and burned
