If #tumblr were to effectively join the #fediverse this year, the culture of the platform could progress significantly over the next year. Large companies as well as smaller ones will probably support this progression. At proto also

@renwillis@mstdn.socialMicroblogging peaked when Tumblr peaked. I'm surprised no one has made an app that adjusted the #Mastodon feed to look more like #Tumblr (content ABOVE the caption, + text only posts, reblog comments BELOW original content, etc).
I saw @dansup was heading that direction in OG #pixelfed days years back, but more #Instagram style later.
But yo, #Fediverse - what do you think? Do you miss peak Tumblr? Am I crazy?
I deleted almost all of my content from #Tumblr because of this 
. But I hope they'll federate someday.

In this week's Cybercultural post, I look back on Tumblr in 2012. In particular, I explore how the gifset — a collection of animated gifs — came to epitomize Tumblr's quirky appeal and helped redefine blogging. (note: I fired up my YouTube a/c for this post, recording 4 video screencasts to illustrate some beautiful 2012 gifsets) https://cybercultural.com/p/tumblr-2012/ #InternetHistory #Tumblr #gifsets
CyberculturalTumblr in 2012 and How the Gifset Redefined Blogging

@ricmac Interestingly, Tumblr seems headed to the fediverse.
That may make it more attractive.
After Tumblr's disastrous experience with Yahoo and Verizon, it has done a bit better under Automattic.

On February 19, 2007 — 18 years ago! — David Karp launched #Tumblr: "A tumblelog isn’t better than a blog. It’s not a replacement. But we’re certain it will be a fabulous alternative to the 90% of web users who don’t care to maintain a blog." https://davidville.wordpress.com/2007/02/19/tumblr/

blog.taursnd.hausFor those that enjoy my Tumblr repostsThese are just a small sample of what I boost over on Tumblr, so feel free to follow me over there.
If'n you don't have Tumblr, you can follow my RSS feed, ...
@kkarhan@infosec.spaceAlso the blatant dismissal [hachyderm.io] of absolitely basic #OpSec & #ComSec is just flabberghasting.
- It's inherently wrong to put all eggs in one basket and #Signal being not shut down like #SkyECC & #EncroChat makes it just as sus as #ANØM / #OperationIronside / #OperatioTrøjanShield and #CryptoAG / #MINERVA / #RUBIKON.
Only #decentralized, #OpenSource & #OpenStandards can actuall survive long-term and remain #secure.
- Otherwise we'd all gaslight ourselves into ignoring the hard lessions we learned that bought us to the #Fediverse and why we ain't on #Shitter or #tumblr or #BrownSky or #NSAbook (any more)!
It's the same reasons we use #PGPG/MIME & #SSH and not #X400 & #X25!
- Unlike with @signalapp one doesn't has to trust the provider or app. #XMPP+#OMEMO works regardless if you use @monocles or @gajim or do #SelfHosting and only trust code you wrote yourself...
IOW: Think "How can you weaponize Signal?" and see what you csn do just holding key people in contempt...
- And I'm not even talkibg about #Govware - #Backdoors and #MassSurveillance alike #Room651A, but just duely submitted warrants that @Mer__edith will comply with...
The less #info a provider has, the less they can be forced to snitch upon customers.
- So even if you don't give a shit that #CloudAct makes this a "#CantUse & #WintUse" (out of US-centrist privilegue to not comply #GDPR & #BDSG) for many, it's still dishonest.
"#JustUseSgnal!" is a form of dangerous "#TechPopulism" aimed at bamboozling #TechIlliterates who don't know better, abusing information asymetry to pull rank instead of investing the time and effort to *explain "how" and "why" this is indeed a good or bad idea.
- There's a reason why @tails_live / @tails / #Tails doesn't include #Signal and why I'll say it again that XMPP+OMEMO over @torproject / #Tor is the gold standard in terms of #privacy and #security when it comes to #ComSec that isn't #airgapped aka. "Airgapped PGP" [www.youtube.com].
The only ones that have a chance to beat that are @delta / #deltaChat but that's just #PGP/MIME #eMail in a nice UI...
- You may now laugh at me and think my "#TinfoilHat sits too tight" but I'm shure sooner or later I'll be evidenced as correct...
Hachyderm.ioCassandrich (@dalias@hachyderm.io)@kkarhan@infosec.space @signalapp@mastodon.world @monocles@monocles.social @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org Very few systems promoted as Signal alternatives match the cryptographic privacy properties (see: ratcheting, etc.) of Signal.
The claims about "located in the USA" and "Cloud Act" are all nonsense because the only threat to Signal users from this is availability (seizure and shutdown of the server infrastructure), not undetected breakage of privacy properties.
There are presently no systems with superior privacy properties to Signal *and* level of functionality on par with what general public expects. There are a lot (like the XMPP stuff, *sigh*, and Matrix) that are worse in both regards. If you're happy with reduced functionality, Cwtch (and possibly some other similar Tor-based systems) or VeilidChat are stronger, but it's gonna be a while before you convince normies to use them, and in the mean time they're still going to be on insecure shit like WhatsApp, FB Messenger, Telegram, etc...
Before #Tumblr gets federated, @ErikUden got a viral post: https://www.tumblr.com/thegaylibertarian/774377189239128065?source=share
TumblrTumblrTumblr. Pure effervescent enrichment. Old internet energy. Home of the Reblogs. All the art you never knew you needed. All the fandoms you could wish for. Enough memes to knock out a moderately-sized mammal. Add to it or simply scroll through and soak it up.
PSA: If you see the following in a person's posts or profile:
- Very online
- jusr
- fucken wimdy
- Content about the TV show Supernatural
- She [anything] on my [something else] until I [whatever]
- Something about stealing shoes from the president
These are people from TUMBLR. You must give them WELCOMING WORDS and JOY. We want them here. Give them (consensual, non-contact, internet-based) FOREHEAD KISSES and ENCOURAGEMENT. Consider FOLLOWING THEM; they will probably post or repost cool stuff.
@tk@bbs.kawa-kun.comTumblr to join the fediverse after WordPress migration completes [techcrunch.com]
Automattic confirmed to TechCrunch that when the migration is complete, every Tumblr user will be able to federate their blog via ActivityPub, just as every WordPress.com user can today.
The company noted that the migration could also allow for other open web integrations, like giving Tumblr users a way to run other custom plug-ins or themes.
