there's a lot of things people blame for why fandoms feel like ghost towns these days, but no one's really talked about the way discord's contributing to it
#its like
#people are trying to force fit discord's chatrooms into forum boards
#except discord is just. really really *really* poorly setup for that
#and theres no way to archive or share it so everything said in it is easily lost despite personal export or community pins or search option
#and like
#vaguely hearing about the way some people are unsatisfied with them/feeling unfufilled in the response to them
#a lot of people would be better off posting those things to places like tumblr
#where there isnt a time limit on when people see or respond to them
#part of what's scary/frustrating on tumblr rn is some fandoms arent good about reblogging to posts or tag rambling
#like with bad buddy a large part of the fun was the enthusiastic and in depth tag rambles and the way responses built on each other
#vs something like kinnporsche which feels much more like-oriented
#like? its not like theres any one way to fandom
#and there's nothing actually wrong with likes or quiet reblogs
#but vaguely hearing about the way some people were/are really upset with some servers im just kinda like
#idk
#feels a bit like people trying to force a square thru a circle or that they're looking in the wrong spaces for what they want
#.......this is not a complaint for my space ajkds i think i've carved out a pretty happy space for myself!
#im just checking the reblog graphs of some old vs new stuff and thinking about a convo other cookie and i were having over the weekend
#i have a lot of friends around and i love everyone who's happy to ramble with me
#but i do feel a slight case of DM burnout rn where mostly people reach out to me via DMs instead of reblogs
#which is a very different dynamic
#its like. hmmm words
#i love DMs but the pressure of responding to a lot of individual messages
#vs something like reblogs which is more open forum for everyone and feels more communal
#if that makes sense?
#the difference between visiting one person at home vs casually hanging out with a group at a cafe
#and the lovely thing about tumblr specifically is that i can set down a reblog chain for several days if i need
#before returning to it later when i have more time/energy
#its got Longevity that discord lacks u know
#........okay enough tag musings from me ajkfhjdgfhj BYE
