ill be real im getting kinda really annoyed with people who are complaining about pillowfort features. pillowfort was not made to handle this much traffic right now. the mods are open about what the site can handle and that it is very heavily in early beta. people who seem confused about the fact that it isnāt Tumblr 2.0 right now are missing the point that it is UNDER DEVELOPMENT and it was nowhere near ready to accommodate tumblrās policy announcements and the wave of panic and safe-guarding tactics.Ā
take a deep breath, give em a donation and grab a link, and support PF so it can reach its fullest potential rather than ragging on features because it canāt immediately do what you want it to do.Ā
Amen. Give them time, guys. Give them time, and a donation so they can hire additional staff. Remember: indies arenāt beholden to anyone but their user base. Donāt want corporate bullshit sellouts like Tumblr became? Support your indie.
I get why ppl are leaving tumblr but ive never deleted an account for anything in my life and if tumblr wants me to leave theyre going to have to kill me themselves
if my tumblr gets deleted donāt try and find me. iāll finally have time to learn how to use a loom. iāll be somewhere making yarn out of sheepās wool i got from a friend in exchange for some honey from my own bees. iāll be happy. leave me alone.
if my blog deletes here is a list of places to find me:
I spent the afternoon arranging our books by size and color (and itās so satisfying and looks amazing) and my partner came home and stared in shock at the bookcase and then said āiām a librarian, you canāt do this.ā
him: you split up all the song of ice and fire books
me: yeah i know, theyāre all primary colors, itās perfect
him: [self-destructs]
Youāre a monster
As a former bookstore employee, this hurts my soul. I mean, sure it looks nice, but how do you find anything?
it has occurred me during this process that apparently not everyone thinks about books by what color they are? like, literally when iām looking for a book, i picture it in my mind. i have a veryā¦tactile experience with the books i read and idk! i thought everyone did that lol.
my partner was likeĀ āhow will i find [this book] for instanceā and i repliedĀ āeasy, itās purpleā and he looked at me like i was a witch.
