how is Tumblr better than twitters 🤔🤔🤔

I have explained this a lot on twitter, but I will write a complete post here because Twitter is horrible at congruous communication. 1. Twitter heavily favors text based tweets ONLY. It is a foundational part of it's algo. As a visual artist to get traction and visibility is an uphill battle where we have to game the system. Tumblr on the other hand doesn't weight anything based off what type of media is being shared. It is about discoverability based of hashtags. 2. No engagement farming - it is really hard to run a shill post or generally engagement farm on Tumblr. This means no phony accounts taking attention away from each other. 3. Artists need a place to connect. This isn't about getting more notice or recognition or chasing clout or wooing collectors. This is about build a network for artists to be able to interact and support each other freely. Discord and group chats are horrible for networking and cliquey. 4. Can share multiple animated gifs and videos in one post. This is a duh way better. 5. Crypto Twitter cares about coins, money and stats. Twitter is important for connecting to the money, but we are establishing ourselves here on Tumblr to connecting to each other for support. 6. We are also here to showcase all our amazing works and stories to the existing Tumblr community who aren't into crypto art and show how we all aren't scams and apes. There is not a strong presence of us here, but this is not to dismiss those who have been here, so we are here to establish this. Hopefully, this helps sway some narrative and misinformation that floats around. 7. Tumblr always has been cooler than Twitter.
