      Tumblr itself is coming to the fediverse though, so I don’t imagine anyone is keen to try and fill that niche in the interim

        @AdaShovelace Tumblr joining the fediverse is cool and all, but what I really wanted was an open source “tumblr” software (like Masto/Pleroma are open source Twitter) so that random peeps could run their own instances and thus we’d be safe from the corporation unilaterally changing the rules like happened to Tumblr back in the nsfw-pocalypse :P

          Sure, but it seems like a very specific niche to try and develop and fill, only to end up losing a chunk of your userbase when Tumblr goes live…
