Tumblr is banning all porn effective December 17. If your tumblr is classified as having adult content, then it's on the chopping block. This year has been a rough one for fetish-friendly sites.

Yeah, I read about that. O_o They're going to lose a huge part of their user base.

Then again, apparently not as much as they'd lose from having their app banned by Apple, I guess.

Sucks major ballsac that they're banning all forms of NSFW content just because a scant few were sharing illegal content. It's not fair to the rest of us who weren't even doing anything wrong. :down: I've deleted my art blog in response... and now trying to find other platforms.

I have actually been considering Twitter! Many artists that I used to follow on another site have migrated there.

At least they have proper Adult cordoning (checking a box) if you will, it has been there for years.

Tumblr had that. Didn't help, apparently.

There was some rumours though on twitter last spring, leading to quick founding of https://switter.at.
Had some major bumps in the beginning though.
