   @whut @Pawlicker @Weeble it was definitely in stuff like live journal back in the day but seeing that LJ was proto-SNS and the web was much dispersed, a lot of things were easier to avoid

     @koimoa @Weeble @whut lj was a corner of the internet, Tumblr and then Twitter were increasingly centralized and giving said groups more power.
     
     Tumblr seems quiet because the porn ban was the site being declared a suicide with two shots to the back of the head and tied to the railroad tracks.
     
     The closest replacement is cohost UI wise, but the code sure as hell isn't open, it's a walled garden by design, and the community isn't diluted but rather a microcosm of tumblrs finest.

     @koimoa @Weeble @whut the other thing with Tumblr is being it's been nearly 6 years since Verizon broke the internet, people have nostalgia for it like this side of the internet does for 4chan given how often tumblr screenshots are posted.
     
     Unlike 4chan people never ate the loss and moved here, and it's community is too neurotic to do so anyway. It's more neurotic than the "FEDS could be here" imageboard posters.
