so what I’m hearing is now is a REALLY good time to start checking out and supporting Pillowfort so we can keep independent, non-corporate, privacy-valuing, queer social media around and vibrant!

[bitchfitch]

as y'all know, being verbose is my main character trait. but as I'm looking around, I'm finding that there is literally no other viably large social media website that like. allows you to post an entire chapter of what you're working on without you having to host it yourself, as well as images and just like. notes about the day to day. it feels bad man. RN I'm bouncing between the three options on my shortlist and more and more it's looking like I'm going to have to bite the bullet and use Twitter. I didn't like it because of how much it limits what you can say and forces strangers into your feed, but at this point there's no where else that would fit what I make as well as tunglr does.

I do not have words to describe this dread. the last month has been... nine kinds of hell one after the other. because like. Believe It Or Not. my dog dying doesn't make the top 5 worst things to happen in the last 30 days. this is kinda just the straw that's breaking the camels back rn.

anyways. my Twitter is mostly just sketchy porn I couldnt post here. I'm going to try to start using it actively over the next few weeks to make the transition easier for me. If you use that site, here's my link.

okay so I still ain't leaving here until they yank me outta the airvents of this place with a catchpole, but

I am on Pillowfort under the same name as here if this site goes belly-up and y'all need to find me lmao

EDIT TO ADD: or if they really do go through with this fucking AI bullshit I'm gonna stop posting writing here and post it over there instead (in addition to AO3 ofc that's just a given)

[unchartedthelostlegacy]

i'm arthany.bsky.app but you're not obligated to follow

[ashtonisvibing]

hey goobers guess who's got a pillowfort account

i won't post too too much over there, this is still gonna be my main spot. i ain't going anywhere else until this site is consumed by a black hole

but i'll be posting my works over there so if you wanna see double the posts go ahead and follow :}

[versegm]

Coming out of my self-imposed tumblr ban cuz this is the third post I see along the lines of "man we gotta jump ship" so here are some other ways to be social/do fandom/ect. I'm not gonna call them "tumblr alternatives" because I won't lie to you these are gonna be very different experiences from tumblr. But if you use tumblr as a way to meet new people/post your thoughts/do fandom/keep up with folks, then maybe one of these is worth looking into.

COHOST

I don't use Cohost so idk if it's good or not, but all the people who use it tell me it's A Whole Lot Like Tumblr. Got pretty mixed reviews on this one, people seem to either love it or hate it, either way you could check it out it's free.

PILLOWFORT

My main bitch, so I can actually talk about it.

Pros:

Lots of cool privacy features

Porn is allowed

Website has been consistently getting updates and listening to the userbase

No ads because it's user-funded

Cons:

Being user-funded means the website is frequently struggling with money

NEOCITIES

This one isn't really a social media, it's a host for websites.

Pros:

You can do whatever the fuck you want here

Cons:

You have to code it all yourself

If you didn't immediately skip this rolling your eyes, here are some ressources to get a blog running with minimum efforts, and a cool zine to figure out what to put on your blog.

FANLISTING

Ye Old internet way to find new peeps in your fandom. It's a list of fans. I'm listing thefanlisting.org here because it's the biggest hub of fanlistings out there, but there are plenty that aren't listed so if you've got a topic dear to your heart it might be worth googling up "[fandom/ship/character] fanlisting" and see what turns up.

Pros:

It's literally just adding your name to a list of fans. Low spoon effort.

Cons:

If you want to talk to any of the people on the fanlisting you have to actually manually contact them via email or website or whatever they provided for contact. High social anxiety effort.

Anyways that's all I got chief. You probably already heard of half of those and the other half might have made you go "hey wtf that's not at all what I use tumblr for why would I need these" and the answer is it's not my problem. I discovered these when looking for ways for me personally to do social media so if you do social media differently sorry I can't help ya. But hey maybe you'll discover something new who knows.

Preemptive answers to things I am sure will clog my notifications for years to come:

None of these are like tumblr! Look bestie this is like the fifth time people consider abandoning tumblr at this point you have to make your peace with the fact that there is no other website like this one.

The websites you mentioned are nearly empty there's no one in my community here! Bro if you want a website with lots of people you don't need me listing off where you can go you already know where people are going (aka: Bluesky) If you're so scared to be alone then invite your buddies to move there together so you can chat together idk. Be the change you want to be in the world.

I'm not gonna use these. Then you've got my blessing to not use these. I assure you you don't need to reblog this post just to tell me you won't use these. I don't care.

Anyways. Peace. Dunno how many people this is gonna be useful to, but if you wanted to branch out of the usual reddit/bluesky/twitter, hopefully this will help.

Bunch of pillowfort invite codes under the cut since I got a bunch. Sorry I got no cohost as I said I don't use that one.

[starlightnecromancer]

I know everyone here who is moving off of tumblr (and I've largely stopped using it unless i'm truly bored and need something to look at) is going to Cohost

But I'd honestly like to also offer Pillowfort as a companion blogging spot. Not "instead of", but "in addition to".

While I lurk on Cohost its still got a lot of design features in terms of how its supposed to be used that I just kind of don't like, and since its supposed to be "anti-social media" that is kind of by design. Pillowfort has been my jam and its been a lot easier for me to actually

I have a lot of codes to give out because its still invite only due to a handful of factors, but I cannot overstate that I have. A lot of codes. There's also a rolling waiting list and its supposed to be fast.

Pros

There is no algorithm. If you want to go find something in a tag, you go find something in a tag. Likewise this means that a lot of fandom conventions are able to be workable because PF (nor Cohost it should be added) will just randomly pull a post into a tag because you mentioned something else.

Edited posts show up on everyone's reblogged version. If OP changes the post you reblogged 4 months ago it will be updated

Community is fairly tight-knit

There's already a strong site culture dedicated to sharing and conversing even within its limitations to make sure others can see it

Native image hosting, you just upload and done!

Communities means you can have a place dedicated to a particular topic, and if you don't like the way one is run you can simply make another one! During April there's applications to take over abandoned communities as well through the Staff

Strong comment culture

Porn is allowed

AI is flatly banned

Cons

Doesn't have a lot in the way of accessibility tools, there's no option to do alt-text like on Cohost or Bluesky so you have to do it the way we used to here on tumblr

No native video hosting, but given how expensive that is I personally don't want it

UI can be clunky and outdated to some users

Activity, even if you follow a fair amount of people and join a high pop communities, will be slow. As people trickle in this may change but as it stands. The feed is slow.

Sometimes communities are abandoned and there's not much you can do about that outside of when Staff opens up applications to take it over.

The site community is tight-knit, because it is small (for now)

Some fandoms, even huge fandoms, have absolutely barren tags because the bulk of the fanbase simply isnt there. (For example, I am the entire Warhammer 40k tag on Pillowfort for several months)

Reblogs do not work the way they do here or on Cohost, a reblog on Pillowfort works more like a Retweet on Twitter or Bluesky, if you want to add commentary you either have to comment it or make a new post, linking back to the original.

Likewise I've made some communities for my fandoms, as well as joined the ones that already existed, and I hope that folks drop in.

Hyper Light Drifter

Max Steel

Web Novels (in general)

Warhammer 40K: Darktide + the General Warhammer 40K community

Transformers

If you want a code send me an ask and i'll yeet it your way.

[ash-rigby]

No pressure of course, could you maybe talk about pillowfort and toyhouse? Like which one you prefer (if either) and if there's major differences between them? I'm not too familiar with them 👉🏻👈🏻

Hope you have a great day 🖤

Certainly! So, Pillowfort is similar to Tumblr but you can post nsfw there which is great. I haven't used it much (just logged into it a few minutes ago because this ask honestly reminded me it exists lol), so I can't say much about the quality of the user experience there but I think I'll try to use it more because, again, it's a good place to host nsfw images.

Toyhouse I love. It's less of a social media site and more of a repository for OCs. It lets you make profiles for your characters, and there's a spot on their page for an art gallery, a Library for writing that involves them, a comments section etc. Even if you don't have OCs it's a good site to follow people whose characters you're interested in and I know some people put adoptables up there if that's of any interest. It's still in beta so you unfortunately need an invite code to get an account at the moment, but I was able to get mine fairly easily by just posting here asking if anyone had codes to spare.

[specialagentartemis]

With the uncertainty about tumblr’s future and people talking about other social media, I really really recommend Pillowfort.

It has long-form text capacity, with a tumblr-like layout and tags. It has image hosting. It has the ability to hyperlink things in text. It has a threaded comments section to talk to both OP and others without getting confusing or jumbled up. It had communities before tumblr did!—and honestly I like Pillowfort’s implementation better. It has post-by-post privacy options. It has no ads, and is funded by users, not the whims of petty CEOs. AI generated content is entirely banned.

It is hands down my favorite social media platform I’ve ever used. I’m active there, and it’s a great community. Crafting, photography, book discussion, and aro and ace discussion are particularly vibrant. As well as furry artists.

I have invitation codes if anyone wants a Pillowfort invite, to check it out and maybe crosspost some of your tumblr posts you like!

[skrillien]

to those of you who are invested in my art:

in light of tumblr partnering with midjourney, i've officially decided i will NO LONGER be posting any of my artwork to tumblr, and probably using this site less as well thanks to the predstrogen shitshow and matt's bad behavior. this really is the last straw for me, and as grateful as i am for tumblr's wealth of fandom history, i suppose it's going the way of livejournal.

all of my artwork will now be exclusive to pillowfort for the foreseeable future.

if you want to follow me there and don't want to sit in the waitlist- as i'm sure there are a billion refugees coming from here- please DM me for an invite code.

Tae's guide to Pillowfort

So you fucking hate what tumblr is doing, you're fed up, but you don't know where else to go / what to do when you get there

Here's a guide what I've been up to over on Pillowfort:

For starters, new users need to either get an invite code (message me if you want one, because I literally always have some!) or donate to Pillowfort's operating costs to get started. I recommend getting a code first, and then donating later if you decide you like Pillowfort.

Recognize that Pillowfort has no ads and does not sell user data, so you are not the product. You are the customer. Pillowfort lives because users give their money to the webisite directly, just like how ArchiveOfOurOwn.org operates. If you give Pillowfort a try... and you want to see it keep growing... and you have a couple bucks to throw their way... please consider donating!

On your new account, you'll set up your blog. User icon, description, settings, etc. You get one blog per account. Consider making this your "everything" blog, where you make your original posts AND reblog things.

Consider making a Community that will serve the same purpose as a tumblr sideblog. For example, I made my main blog ceylon-tae and then made the Community "ceylon-tae-art". Just make the Community for now.

Did you set your NSFW and blacklist preferences? You should. Filters & Blacklist have their own link in the sidebar, so you don't have to go into your Settings every time you want to blacklist something. Easy!

Join some more Communities! Think of joining a [Fandom] Community like following the [Fandom] tag on tumblr. Posts from that Community will show up on your feed now! Here is a list of the currently-most-active communities.

Follow some people! You might have seen some of your comrades on tumblr posting their Pillowfort accounts, or maybe you really liked someone's post in a Community and you decide you'd like to follow them! Go follow them! Their posts will show up on your feed now!

Make a post! Remember to add any relevant tags to the post, especially if your post is NSFW, and don't cen/s0r your tags. Your post will now show up on your blog, and you can control who can see it, reblog it, or comment to it. You can make text, image, video, or link posts.

Now you can reblog that post you made to your Community that you made! Or to another Community someone else made! Some Communities review submitted reblogs before posting them, others do not. Remember to add the relevant tags to your reblog here as well.

Reblog posts you enjoyed, so you can show it to your followers!

If you have something to say about the post, Pillowfort has a nested comments section! Livejournal / Dreamwidth / Reddit users will find this familiar. Newbies will hopefully find it easy to learn: make your own comment, reply to the comments other people have made, talk to people in a space that's made for talking and replying.

You can make your own hush-hush commentary in your tags when you reblog a post to your blog, but these tags are not visible anywhere else. So Pillowfort is not gonna rat you out to OP when you make weird tags on your reblog. But also there is no bulit-in way to read everyone's tags in one long list.

You cannot make addendums to posts when you reblog them. If you want to add something, make a comment! Or make your own post and include link to the original post.

Seriously. Comments section. Good stuff. If you enjoy a post, check out its comment section. For comparison, tumblr discussions lived in reblogs, but comments on AO3 fics are what makes an author's world go 'round. Comments are where discussion lives on Pillowfort. So comment on the post if you have something to say! You can have real discussions again! GO. BE FREE. You can also do a Kung Pow Penis in nested comments if you want to. Nested comments are good.

Likes just tell OP you liked the post. That's it. It's just like how kudos works on AO3.

Remember, there's no algorithm, so Likes don't boost any post's visibility, and if you want other people to see a post, you reblog it. If you want to see posts, you follow people and communities, or you dive into the tags for yourself.

There's more details and things to know, but I think these are some good basics for "how the fuck do I even get started"

In summary:

Make a blog. Make posts. Make a niche-interest Community or three. Follow people and Communities. Reblog other people's posts to your blog. Reblog posts to your niche-interest Communities. Make comments. Reply to comments. Love the comments. The comments are a fertile land and we will thrive. And we will call it... Pillowfort!

*sigh* IDK if Pillowfort is still in invite-code-to-register mode, but if it is- I've got some, I'd be happy to share

for those who want something that looks and feels like diet tumblr

[torchiiko]

where to find me in case tumblr dies

i dont wanna spread panic but i DO wanna make sure ive got backups in place in case smth does end up happening in the future instead of scrambling last-minute to find everyone. id prefer us all in the same place ofc & i wont leave tumblr until it completely ceases to exist, so this is all a precaution for now

first up, i wanna make it clear that i will have the same username across every platform im on! i have no plans to be anything other than Torchiiko as long as im able to. if you cant find Torchiiko on a site, im probably not there! next i wanna mention my carrd [torchiiko.carrd.co]. its where ill keep my links if you ever need them, so if tumblr explodes my carrd is the first place to check for other places to find me!

artfight [artfight.net/~Torchiiko] - more of a big art trading game than a social media. i dont log in much in the off-season, but i try to participate in july!

bluesky [@torchiiko.bsky.social] - like twitter but before that idiot ruined it. i dont use it much since i prefer being able to make longer posts but in a pinch i may switch over

discord [Torchiiko] - you guys know discord. its a messaging app & will probably be the best place to reach me since i get mobile notifs (unless they decide not to do their job for no reason. happens a lot :/)

flight rising [Torchiiko] - dragon petsite :) doubt anyone will need to find me there but its An Option

pillowfort [pillowfort.social/torchiiko] its Kinda like tumblr?? has a short waitlist tho. i forgot i had one so its Empty but it might just be my first choice if i need to migrate

neocities [torchiiko.neocities.org] - personal website! theres nothing on it rn but i Believe you can follow sites for updates. youll need html knowledge to make your own tho

toyhouse [toyhou.se.com/Torchiiko] - invite only (but its Not hard to get a code), primarily a character storage site with forums. i check in now & then but dont tend to post much. you can always look at my ocs without an account!

twitch [twitch.tv/torchiiko] - i stream sometimes btw. i usually forget to announce it so you can follow me there if you want stream notifs 👍
