So… if the backend gets moved over to Wordpress, and Wordpress can already federate, I guess this means Tumblr is coming to the fediverse? 😮

Remember when Verizon paid a billion dollars to ruin Tumblr and get a fraction of that back for it?
Ruin it by removing porn?

Regardless, many of us who didn’t use Tumblr for NSFW content left in solidarity with NSFW content creators, curators, and consumers. There was a very progressive attitude on Tumblr, and trying to impose puritan content restrictions to lure more advertisers didn’t sit well with the culture that had been established on Tumblr.

The purpose of fandoms is porn?

Wordpress federation is pretty one directional, you can follow a blog from mastodon, but you can’t use your blog to follow other people.
I understood you could, with the friends plugin:
If you also have the ActivityPub plugin installed, you can follow people on Mastodon and other ActivityPub-compatible social networks.
Interesting, I didn’t realise that.
However I assume they will be migrating them to wordpress.com, which is their proprietary hosted solution, as opposed to wordpress.org, which is the open source software. Plugins don’t work on wordpress.com free accounts, only paid ones. I believe outward federation is integrated into .com though.
they’re just moving the tumblr backend into the WordPress software. No cause for WordPress.com to be involved
Oh boy my tumblr will be now 518% more hackable!
I believe there is already plans in the timeline to bring Tumblr to the fediverse.
