To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:

A post in 2023:

A post in 2014:

A zoom out of the same post:

This is what a community looks like.

See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.

It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.

Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.

If you want more of something, reblog it.

#i said i wont ever rant about this bc it's unseemly but HONESTLY.#you simply cannot complain about not having enough of A or B or C and then never reblog / interact with the content you love.#If you LOVE something you cannot just leave a like and silently wait for more to happen #I know countless of content creators that simply stopped doing art/writing fic/making edits #You need to understand that fandom content is made FOR the fandom FOR the engagement FOR the entertainment and fun it makes.#If a content creator does not have fun IN the fandom-- why would they spend the scares free time they have on making this content?#And we're not talking about things that you don't like-- no one expects you to reblog things you don't like.#However I think it's safe to say that when a post has more than 5k it's not some random shitpost with no value.#tumblr issues #tumblr #content creators #buns.txt #something something please don't starve your local clowns

Wade: you're the taco to my chimichanga.

Peter: is that a sex joke?

Wade: ...no? I'm just hungry.

I am so smitten with fic writers who take the time to actually respond to comments, it is the loveliest sweetest thing, and I think it is not appriciated often enough. They anyways spend countless hours writing, and when not writing editing and trying to manage some other activities also. To sit down and reply to comments takes time and energy, and they chose to do this instead of the myriad of other obligations or, well— writing. I love this. Truly.

#It's easy to say 'of course I reply I appriciate all comments I get'#And it's obvious.#But it's harder when you consider the person who sits down and spends a few hours responding to things.#I'm just saying that I find it to be really sweet and lovely to have the author write back like this.#buns.txt #ao3

Me, trying to scroll through my activity in the midst of a sibling boop war:

#And it's not all. It's just what I recorded /at the time/.#So if you didn't receive a boop back from me— please understand it's the literal only reason 😂 😂 😂#April's fool #boop o meter #Boop-o-meter #Tumblr #Video #You guys are hilarious 😂#Thank God there's no way to see precisely how much each of your sent because otherwise this war would have continued 😂 😂 😂#buns.txt #mayhemspreadingguy #Roxiusagi

Obsessed with Dream asking “You are?” when Hob tells him he’s interested in his stories and interests as if the man didn’t spend the past 700 years obsessed with every single word dream had ever said

#Dream genuely not expecting people to care about what he has to say about himself #unless it's his art and work and stories of greatness #Dream: I like birds #Hob: that's the loveliest thing i've heard all days please elaborate in detail #Dream: 🥺🥺🥺#dreamling #buns.txt

I don't even know how to describe the insanity of accidentally discussing the concept of minions in dreams, or worse, minions being escaped dreams or nightmares who REJOICE and scream in delight when Dream returns, rushing over and hugging his legs shouting "Boss!!" and "It's BOSS" and "Boss LA RETURNA" or some other form of gibberish.

(@cuubism I blame you, tbh)

#This shame and lack of dignity is being dragged out #I cannot believe I said the word minion here #BUT FUCK THIS SHIT IMAGINE HOW MANT CHIDLREN AND ADULTS DREAM OF THE MINIONS #THEY HAVE AN ARMADA WAITING IN THE DREAMING #LUCIFER AND HIS DEMONS ATTACK THE DREAMING? BIG FUCKING MISTAKE.#THE LITTLE FERAL THINGS WILL GO INSANSE.#buns.txt #Please put me in the baby jail for a while.#cuubism #I dare not tag it in any way.#It's officially near morning for me #I need to knock myself out cold #cursedMinionDream

Hob Gadling aiming to woo a divorced (+1) older goth man through the centuries should be applauded and respected. You go you funky little human. You can do it.
