This most likely isn’t good, don’t quote me on this but I’m pretty sure Yahoo has a track record for deleting or abandoning the websites it buys. You think Tumblr has been bad now? Just you wait, it’s probably going to get worse. I don’t want anyone to wake up and see their blog gone because Yahoo just decided to kill it without any warning. I don’t know for sure what they’ll do, but I don’t have a good feeling about it that’s for sure, so here’s what I’m going to do and if you have any important content on this site, you should as well:
If you have any writing art, video’s or anything original you made and posted on Tumblr, and not anywhere else, back that shit up. Onto another website or on your computer preferably (that way no one can ever delete it except you), If there are things like this you love and want to keep so you can see them again, do the same thing. As long as you dont post it without permission or take credit, it should be OK to do.
If you have any friends on Tumblr or people you want to continue talking to, but you only know them on Tumblr, give them a second way they can contact you like gmail or skype. If you don’t have those, or aren’t close enough to feel comfortable doing that just yet, then give them another website you’re on. Loosing your work is one thing, but loosing contact with someone you care about would be even worse.
If your sick of Tumblr and this was the final straw for you, then I feel you. I actually have another website you can use that’s very similar to Tumblr for your blogging needs. It’s not very active yet, but it has ALOT of potential. I joined a little while ago, and it’s called Sho N Tell . It lets you have multiple blogs and other very useful features! If you liked Tumblr, or rather what it used to be, then you’ll like this. The difference to this site is that it listens to it’s userbase.
If you want other people to see this, and think it’s important as well, be sure to signal boost!
If my followers want other ways to talk, message me and I’ll give you my Skype just in case
Signal boost
http://soup.io is also a thing, and it can automatically pull over your tumblr content
