I was backing up my professional/personal Twitter account to my writing Tumblr account, but Tumblr seems increasingly desperate, too. I'm not sure there really are many social media platforms left that seem at all stable.

Dreamwidth itself always has been, of course, but I'm not sure it's suited to this sort of account, and I guess there's Wordpress for a certain value of social media, which feels a bit weird given that it's a corporate cousin to Tumblr these days—but I hate navigating the block structure. So maybe I will just clean up my Dreamwidth quasi-mirror, but it's not exactly an interactive experience. IDK.

Yeah, I've been trying to decide where to move my academic twitter account and haven't gotten around to it because I don't know the answer.

I think Tumblr is increasingly desperate because they hired a bunch of ex-Twitter employees who are trying to resurrect their old workplace. Dislike!

Even the things that are fun seem to have that edge to me, tbh—catering to the audience they have left, I guess, in a way they rarely if ever used to do. But yeah, the Twitterification is actively unpleasant. Ugh.
