i think the reason i like tumblr so much is that it really emulates a piece of what the old web is like. a lot of people are mobile users now, but if you take advantage of desktop, you can have your own unique theme, make a bunch of cool pages for people to explore. tags let you explore other ppls art, depending on how long they’ve been posting, you can see how their art has evolved.

you really dont get that on twitter or other websites without having to scroll through a bunch of tweets to find a users art. once its posted, its basically dead because other tweets are flooding in.

user customization is non existent on those sites, you are forced to use the same layout as everyone else. constantly being advertised to if youre using their mobile apps.

web 2 is joyless. you’ve been turned into a product. too much focus on likes & views. you’re perfectly fine with companies stealing your personal info & make money off of you for the sake of convenience. web3 is being envisioned by the biggest assholes on earth.

“The indie web, it’s these thousands of websites delivering millions of pages, built up with passion, opinions and information by Net users assuming their rights as citizens. The indie web is a new type of link between people, it’s a free and open space of shared knowledge where vanity has no place. ” - the indie web manifesto, 1997
