I’m sure I’ve read this headline before and nothing came of it then.
Automattic declined to share a time frame as to when the migration would be complete, given its scale, but a rep for the company called the progress so far “exciting.”
Yeah, they’ve been talking about this for years now.
With all the decades of poorly made freshman intern tier spaghetti code Tumblr is built on it’s no surprise adding anything takes a long time.
As long as the NSFW comes over. The block button is right there for anyone who doesn’t like it

of all platforms I didn’t expect the hellsite to federate.
They’ve been recently bought by Automattic (WordPress), so this doesn’t surprise me. I wouldn’t have expected it if they were still owned by their previous owner though.
We’re gonna need a blocking button.
Wow, way to try staying relevant I guess? They had a huge following and the porn was flowing during the good times. They blew their chance and now it’s a shell of itself. Fuck Tumblr.
As long as there’s no toxic behaviour from them, I’m more than OK with this
I welcome our colon three posting brothers and sisters
how do you link pixelhub and lemmy to tumblr
Can anyone eli5?
Will it federate with AP platforms?
God I hope my instance defederates with them.
Why? Tumblr is terrible, but in a good way.
Tumblr is terrible
Stay terrible fam.
Because Automattic owns Tumblr and is run by a douchebag transphobe that is also destroying WordPress. (Though, to be fair WordPress is fucking trash)
You could just block them yourself if you don’t like leftist spaces that much
Instead of hoping your instance does something, just make your own instance. That’s the whole idea.
Oh hellsite
Maybe if they did something about their porn bot problem I’d be happier to see this
There’s always the block button.
What an amazing concept right? Being able to personally filter out individually what you don’t like.
I will applaud tumblr for having a good block button. But it doesn’t solve the porn bot problem.
Neocities is Tumblr if it were worth anyone’s time.
Nooooooooooooo
Is it still the same SJW hellhole it was a decade ago?
Lol, people are still using SJW as a snarl world in 2025?
No, the word is DEI now.
As with the fediverse, there are a lot of user curated blacklists to get rid of the problem children.
Just don’t trust shinigamieyes, that shit got taken over by terfs a few years back and now lists a lot of innocent trans bloggers.
thebadspace has no real rhyme or reason either and lists a lot of folks I think are fine, and also gives (almost) no reason or receipts.
Wait, what? That’s disappointing. I use Shinigamieyes, haven’t noticed anything weird yet.
