Tumblr is dead. I give it three months before it's forgotten by the majority of its former user base.

So the question is where will that userbase go, now might be the time to position yourself to accept them if you're a similar site .. I probably wouldn't be here [on HN] if Slashdot/Digg/etc. hadn't screwed up in the past.

It seems that most people are going:

- Twitter - Pillowfort - Wordpress - Mastodon

depends a lot on what the user was into posting.

I'm also seeing quite a few more people operating on multiple sites at once now, even SFW blogs. So they'll post Tumblr, Pillowfort, and Wordpress at the same time so their former users can still see them.

I want to believe Newgrounds can recapture a large amount of illustrators who have Patreon accounts and large amounts of work, because they have excellent categorization features and hosts both SFW/NSFW stuff.

There's only going to be one blog left, and it's going to be called "Bring back the porn".

Scrubs?

Sure is.
